Hey folks 🙂 I think I got something interesting here — a call backed by a lot of research and that will surely point at many reading rabbit holes. A series of two calls (4th and 11th of May) exploring a simple but extremely complicated question: “What is Quality?”
This call is backed by some serious research effort, including the works of Donab…Read more

Hi everyone – given that it’s a month since I posted, I can see how this can easily drift lol. I have set up a poll to help us choose a book: https://take.quiz-maker.com/poll4274068x2fCe4430-135
I suggest we make this a lunchtime event, but every 2 months to give us time to read. How does that suit?-
Yes, it does drift sometimes 😂 it is known!
Lemme use some shouldertapping here! Some people who previously mentioned they’d be interested 🙂

I’m keen to help here if you folks need any logistical setup!

HI everyone, I’m new in this SIG. It looks like it has lain dormant for a bit – anyone up for a resurrection – or please correct me if I’m wrong? I’m always on the lookout for new books to read… and accountability to make me read them . Does anyone have any ideas for a starter?
-
Hi Karen, I would definitely be up for a reading club!!
-
HI Karen definitely up for a refresh too…my current reading is some of the Brene Brown leadership related ones…so could suggest ‘Dare to Lead’ if you’ve not read it already?
-
Hey Wendy! Just re-read that after a long while.
And here’s a very direct invitation: Helen Sanderson, who’s a certified Dare To Lead trainer is giving this decision-making toolkit call in just over a week, thought you might be interested 🙂 https://q.health.org.uk/event/q-liberating-structures-user-group-3/

Thanks for resurrecting this – I’m always looking to swap recommendations and discuss books!
Have you read Turn the Ship Around by David Marquet? Or New Power by Jeremy Heimans and Henry Timms? They’re my most recent reads, both excellent.
Next on my list:
– Start with Why (Simon Sinek)
– Radical Candor (Kim Scott)
– Leading Change (John…Read more-
The Fearless Organisation is excellent! If you like that, try The Culture Code by Dan Coyle!!

Great stuff looks we we have a proposed reading list to go with. @joriamramos is there functionality in here to set up a poll of the books people have suggested? I am happy to host a virtual session through our Scottish Care teams or zoom account – which do people prefer?
-
Great to hear that @karenlouisehedge
I’ll be glad to help you set up this zoom 🙂 Either via Q’s team or your zoom. Please send me an email with some time and date ideas (joriam@enspiral.com)There’s no native functionality, but I feel for now — since this new energy just arrived with your post — you could just make a regular post with the lis…Read more

SO Sorry…I never seem to find time to get to these Q messages…they pop up and then I haven’t the time to log in to read them. It’s a shame the Q thing doesn’t allow you to be continually signed in..

About this group
This group offers a space where members can continue their own professional development through a virtual book club. The idea is that a particular time period and place is identified for a discussion space about a specific book/article/chapter/blog. Members can join in at a time that suits their personal commitments to read and contribute to the conversation. The first publication discussed was Carl Macrae’s ‘The problem with incident reporting’ in BMJ Quality & Safety. This was followed by a twitter-chat on ‘Does quality improvement improve quality’ by Dixon-Woods and Martin.
This group is convened by Heather Shearer
