Event Background & Context
Feedback from the last Thinktank suggested that participants wanted the opportunity to visit successful Public Sector Lean sites to better understand its applicability and to explore issues surrounding implementation in more depth. The Ministry of Justice’s Court Services have very kindly offered to host the next Thinktank session at Liverpool County Court, providing the opportunity to learn more about how they delivered their improvement programme, to discover what results they have achieved and to talk to staff about the experience. Agenda 11.00 am - Pillar and Platform Implementations in the Public Sector (Nicola Bateman / Ann Esain / Sarah Lethbridge) 12.00 pm - Workshops: To what extent are our own implementations ’pillars’ or ‘platforms’?

This research will offer a framework for Thinktank members to be able to reflect on what we have experienced at Liverpool County Court and Sefton. We hope that you will join us on what will be a very interesting and educational event.
