Richard Marsden goes Public...
Er... What Richard's actually concerned about is the negative impact that a lack of effective decision-making can have on change projects in the public sector.
Richard talked to the Guardian's Public journal about how challenge, or in some cases direct interference, from leaders at the top has made decision-making particularly difficult in the NHS.
He said "We've seen good decisions watered down or completely upturned at the insistence of senior bodies – only to be reversed back to the original, locally led proposal later on. It's a huge waste of time and money."
The Public site has the complete content of this article about effective decision making.
