Developing our organisation

Organisational Development

Taking personal responsibility is one of our core values, and it plays an important role in reminding our staff to take individual and team pride in their services, achievements and decisions. We recognise that this is a big ask but we trust our staff in their abilities to do right by our patients and hospitals, which is why we support them every step of the way and ensure that they have all the tools they need to develop and succeed.

Our multi-disciplinary Leadership and Organisational Development team offers a range of development opportunities that support staff at each stage of their career regardless of role, profession or band. The training on offer is a mix of theory and practical skills development, combined with experiential learning techniques; it's no secret that our staff are very busy, so the team work with them to create ways of learning on the go, like our very successful Leadership @ Lunch initiative and various e-Learning materials. 

They strongly believe that our leaders are one of our greatest assets, and we know that strong leadership skills lead to higher staff morale, improved team working and ultimately, high-quality patient care. To help support our leaders to shine, the team provide a wide range of accredited leadership and management training programmes, which will help staff with the commitment, determination and energy to achieve their goals.

In addition to providing fantastic opportunities for developing skills and qualifications, our Leadership and Organisational Development team also hold staff feedback sessions, in both formal and informal settings, to ensure that everyone can have their say amongst peers or management. They also run exciting projects throughout the year, like '24 hours in...', which gives a fly-on-the-wall look at what different departments do on a daily basis, helping our overall team connection to strengthen.

Within an NHS environment, organisational development is crucial; it ensures that staff are always on the top of their game, provides open communication channels between managers and their teams, and gives staff the opportunity to share their thoughts and make a difference- all working together to maintain excellent care standards for our patients.

At Lancashire Teaching Hospitals, we value every opportunity to better ourselves and know that existing as one big team with pride and passion for growth means that we can acknowledge when something isn't working and use the fantastic support available to change it. Join us today to take your career to the next level and become a key player in an organisation that listens to its staff, values their voices and works collaboratively to provide continuous excellent care with compassion.
