Intro
Apologies
The last couple of weeks have been unbelievably busy and my apologies we were unable to get last weeks edition out. It is a bumper edition with some excellent video from last weeks Improvement and Innovation Network event. We are looking forward to the new year and some exciting new opportunities and products.
Learnt so much with last weeks event and the real benefit was the quality of the content from all speakers which means there are videos for people to access any time.
Maybe just one more edition before Christmas and thanks for subscribing we will aim to keep bringing you content in 2021.

Strategy is how we get from where we are now, to where we want to be. It’s as much about saying what we’re not going to do, as it is about deciding what we will do.
Strategy focuses the organisation’s efforts towards a common goal. User-centred design is one of your best tools to define that.
