Strong leadership to develop cohesive and sustainable multi-disciplinary teams (MDTs) in a primary care setting is key to supporting and empowering service users within their own communities-being seen by the right person at the right time in the right place and supporting people to live their best lives.
MDTs are the mechanism for organising and coordinating health, social care and voluntary services to meet the needs of individuals with complex care needs.
This programme will support participants to develop their system leadership skills, alongside developing an awareness and understanding of how to apply these skills to deliver true personalised care.
The offer will provide an opportunity for peer-led learning, through facilitated Application Learning Groups. These groups, in conjunction with the theory will support greater understanding of both the landscape they are working in, as well as the challenges of developing a strong, collaborative team of people from various professional backgrounds and team cultures, who are coming together for the shared aim of putting the patient at the centre of the conversation. As the programme is pan-regional, it will offer participants the opportunity of learning from colleagues across the country.
This is a pan-regional programme with a limited number of places. We are therefore keen to ensure that the right individuals have the opportunity of participating and that they have the support and sponsorship of both their line-manager and the wider system that they are working within.
Who is this programme for?
Individuals responsible for developing, facilitating and leading MDT working.
Programme Aims:
- Explore and understand the value of MDT working in the context of patient centred care, population health, placed based care and the wider landscape of Integrated Care Systems (ICS’s)
- Understand the importance of a shared vision and finding a common language. How to develop a shared vision and purpose across a multi-disciplinary team through co-creation and co-production
- To identify and understand the enablers and barriers to effective MDT working
- To develop wider system leadership skills in leading change, developing trust, building collaborative relationships, changing mindsets
- To explore the practical aspects of running a successful MDT-challenges and opportunities
- To work with conflict – how to manage and resolve it and make it a positive part of team dynamics
- To identify how to convey the impact and value of MDT working to the wider system-outputs, impact, measures of success, storytelling
- Support colleagues to spread learning across their PCNs and wider systems through a train the trainer approach
The programme is led and facilitated by experienced tutors from Tricordant who have significant experience of supporting and developing the Primary Care workforce.
Throughout the programme the individual will have the opportunity to listen to and share ideas and experiences with their peers, the facilitators and with guest speakers and subject matter experts in healthcare.
Programme Details:
In order to gain the most from the programme, participants are expected to attend all sessions. There will be some pre-reading material to support theoretical knowledge and there will be an expectation that participants will reflect upon their learning and its impact on their practice with a view to exploring these reflections within their Application Learning groups.

“This programme has stimulated and activated a lot of advice and learning, helping me to reframe my skills and abilities in the context of my current role”
The Midlands Leadership Academy are delighted to announce this programme providing support and development for Practice, PCN (Primary Care Network) and Business Managers with a focus on their personal skills of leadership and collaboration to ‘work at scale’. It will consider the nature of the role and reflect on the rapid changes COVID has brought about to the way PCNs needs to work and move forward. It is designed to equip PCN Managers with the tools, skills, strategies and networks to lead, manage and influence change. It will create time to consider how PCNs and the Fuller Stocktake Report are shaping the way healthcare is delivered locally, regionally and nationally, and to support the voice of the Practice, PCN and Business Managers in the Integrated Care Systems.
What is it?
The purpose of the programme is for Practice, PCN and Business Managers to have an opportunity to step away from their busy operational environment and spend time networking, sharing best practice and working ‘on their local healthcare environment’ rather than ‘operationally in it’. It is not about how to carry out the role of a Practice, PCN or Business Manager, rather it will cover how to develop the skills that will support you to be effective in the role and to enable you to connect with other Primary Care Managers to help build a regional support network.

- Enhance and develop a personal network of Primary Care Managers as well as healthcare leaders and decision makers
Workshop overview and dates
This programme will be delivered virtually using the Teams platform and the focus will be on creating a learning environment that is engaging, interactive, informative, supportive, challenging and practical.
Throughout the programme participants will be encouraged to learn and work collaboratively, sharing ideas and developing a sense of unity and understanding. They will be introduced to the latest thinking and will broaden their understanding of the different perspectives of stakeholder groups, enabling them to make more informed decisions around working in collaboration with others.
During the programme participants will have the opportunity to work in small groups on a change theme where they can apply their knowledge and skills in an improvement project. Participants will also have access to Aspire’s Digital Learning Hub, an on-line training platform designed to enhance the remote learning experience, and includes access to a range of management tools, programme handouts, videos, questionnaires, further reading material and personal learning activities (a range of pre and post workshop activities) to embed learning in a supportive and practical way.
The programme is led and facilitated by experienced tutors from Aspire Development who have been developing and delivering this programme over the last 3 years.
