The Flexible Working Team, together with colleagues from NHS Employers and Unison would like to invite you to a dedicated session on the complex scenarios that often arise around flexible working.
In June’s session we asked Flexible Working Network members what support they needed to implement flexible working in their organisations and teams and support with these ‘knotty issues’ was requested.
This session will explore some of the trickier scenarios that occur with flexible working e.g. accommodating flexible working requests in smaller teams, and talk these through using examples developed by NHS Employers, Staff Council and trade union colleagues.
We will be looking for attendees to share their experience in navigating these challenges as well as input on any other frequently occurring issues that require further support. Detailed agenda to follow.

Please join us at our next Flexible Working Network event. This network will allow for engaging discussion, sharing of ideas and exploring of the ‘wicked issues’ and challenges facing the implementation of flexibility across the NHS. It is open to NHS colleagues with an interest in helping us to embed flexibility, and provides an opportunity for two way communication.
Following feedback at the last Network event, this session will focus on E-rostering/Self-rostering and how the technology alongside collaborative team processes can enable and support a flexible working culture.

About the workshop:
Research shows that the most powerful factor influencing culture is leadership. Leaders who model compassion, inclusion and dedication to improvement in all their interactions are the key to creating cultures of continuous improvement in health and care.
This 2-part session uses the science of psychology to help you explore your own self-awareness, emotional intelligence and personal impact with the aim of helping you to reach your leadership potential and achieve your career aspirations. It is aimed at emerging leaders, clinical and non-clinical staff in band 5, and above.
What will be covered:
These interactive virtual workshops, conducted over 2 x 2.5hr sessions will give you the opportunity to:
-
- Explore your personal values, motivations, and preferences for how you live and work
- Think about yourself in your current role, your purpose, your level of contentment, and how well you think you perform.
- Understand how your emotions drive how you think and behave.
- Explore how you manage your emotions when faced with particularly difficult situations or work-life challenges and how you might better manage those situations.
- Protected time to explore your career/life journey and aspirations.
- Understand your impact on others and how you might be perceived by others
You will be asked to complete some pre-session and post self reflection work, which is all designed to support the learning in the sessions and help you in the development of a personal action plan that captures your knowledge and skills so far in in your career and ensures some time to consider and understand the support you might need to implement your plan. You will also be provided with links to further resources, practical help throughout both sessions.
