Improving Productivity and Team Spirit in the UK National Health Service
Culture change in a Mental Health and Community Care Trust
Aug 28, 2025
Andrew Gibson
In this compelling and practical session, Andrew Gibson shares the remarkable story of how Solution Focused Practice (SFP) is driving culture change within a Trust of the UK’s National Health Service (NHS).
Working with a Mental Health and Community Care Trust, Andrew has introduced SFP not just as a coaching tool, but as a whole-organisation approach. The result? Improved productivity, boosted team morale—and, most importantly—better care for clients and patients.
What you’ll take away:
- A practical organisational model…
- Real evidence — both numbers and stories…
- Ideas for how SFP practitioners can use this model…
Format:
This is an inspiring talk, brought to life with real-world stories and a clear, actionable presentation. It’s relevant for anyone using SFP in organisations, especially in health and care systems—but the lessons are transferable across sectors and countries.
Whether you’re a consultant, trainer, or simply curious about scaling positive change—this session offers insight, hope, and a practical path forward.
