AspirationThe pioneer localities will act as “a means of driving forward change at
scale and pace from which the rest of the country can benefit” (Collaboration partners)

Six conclusions from previous “pioneer type” programmes in health and social care over the last decade
1. Promising pilot programmes are rarely replicated successfully 2. Issues of spread and scale are typically an afterthought3. Change is highly context specific4. People outside the pilot locality do not feel any ownership of, or
emotional connection with, the pilot project so change processes have to be “pushed” onto other localities rather than pulled.
5. Pioneer sites have limited ‘bandwidth’ to coach others and spread best practices
6. Very few evaluation studies look beyond the pioneers to issues of scale and spread

Two kinds of system-level problems
A difficulty• Broad agreement on
the nature of the problem
• Some understanding of what the solution might look like
• Clarity about the time and resources required to solve the problem
A mess• No clear agreement about
exactly what the problem is• Ambiguity about how
improvements might be made• Unbounded in terms of the in
terms of the time and resources it could absorb, the scope of enquiry needed to understand or resolve it, and the number of people that may need to be involved

"The secret to getting ahead is getting started. The secret of getting started is breaking your complex, overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, and then starting on the first one.“

Necessary behaviours for managing wicked problems
• Establishing shared goals• Build trust• Exchange information & other resources• Embrace emergence• Explore new territory• Create new knowledge• Facilitate, enable & coach
@NHSIQ @CBlackaby #integrationpioneers
Closed innovation Open innovation
As a “pioneer” test site , we want to be left alone for a period of time so we can work it out for ourselves
As a “pioneer” test site, we seek to continuously get ideas and guidance from leading thinkers and practitioners outside our local area; as a result we sustain our energy for change and continue to implement changes over a longer timeframe
We will test our new ways of working internally “to destruction”. When we are confident they will work, we will offer to share our “best practice innovations” with others
A wider group has contributed to the innovation process, beyond our host organisation; this means that when it comes to diffusing the learning from pioneer sites, people from other localities already feel that they own it. Spread is more likely to be “done with” not “done to” and to be “pulled” not “pushed”

The power of co-creation
How are we doing it?1. Build the Integrated Care and Support Exchange (ICASE) as
a learning community with and around the pioneers2. Create, capture and spread knowledge, skills and ideas
using open innovation and knowledge sharing principles3. Put the pioneers at the centre of the learning community
but with an open innovation mindset 4. Build a compelling narrative that calls people to action and
that focuses as much on “big picture” aspirations for change across the country as it does on the specific localities
@NHSIQ @CBlackaby #integrationpioneers
5. Plan for spread right from the start6. Create a special status for localities that applied but didn’t
achieve pioneer status. Create opportunities for them to progress more quickly and effectively than the pioneers.
7. Clearly define what being a pioneer; create a “compact” (contract) that sets out the “give and get” as a condition of being a pioneer e.g. participation in open innovation processes .

“If you feel entirely comfortable, then you're not far enough ahead to do any good. That warm sense of everything going well is usually the body temperature at the centre of the herd."— John Masters
Support programme
• Support managers• Experts for trouble shooting• Leadership development• Large scale change training• Networks and events• Communications• Learning community development

@NHSIQ @CBlackaby #integrationpioneers
A different approach • Working with the Innovation Unit
– a not-for-profit social enterprise – committed to using the power of innovation to solve social
challenges– supporting leaders and organisations delivering public
services to see and do things differently to achieve radically different solutions that offer better outcomes for lower costs.
• www.innovationunit.org
@NHSIQ @CBlackaby #integrationpioneers
A different approach • Working with the Innovation Unit• Being steered by sites’ preferences and comments • Tailoring a programme of innovative support that can
be dynamic and co-produced with the sites• Developing a taxonomy for this way of working,
where themes become key learning communities

CONVERSATION 1
Suzanne Devlin
‘This is the slide set that was shared at the Measurement and Evaluation Session at the first Pioneer workshop on 11th December 2013 in London.’
Dec 12, 2013
Abraham George
‘Suzanne, thanks for this. I believe the work PH has done here in Kent using the Risk Stratification approach to understand service utilisation and costs is a significant stepping stone towards developing whole systems approach for monitoring and evaluating the Integration Pioneer programme. As mentioned in the presentation I would like to explore further with the experts / organisations. How do I go about this?’

Jo Frazer
‘Hi Abraham, we can discuss on Monday as I'll be gathering comments on proposed measures and make sure you're linked in to ongoing work on evaluation.’

‘Thanks Jo’
Sarah McBride
My ‘other’ vote is about large scale pooling of budgets, including how to get the governance right, and public, democratic and clinical involvement. Thank you!

“We can't impose our will on a system. We can listen to what the system tells us, and discover how its properties and our values can work together to bring forth something much better than could ever be produced by our will alone.” ― Donella H. Meadows, Thinking in Systems: A Primer
