Handling Ambiguity and Uncertainty

This session is aimed at senior leaders across the North West (including but not exclusive to NHS Organisation Board and Sub Board post-holders, Executive and Governing Body Leads, Primary Care leaders working within and alongside Primary Care Networks and Integrated Care Systems, senior leadership teams and those working across system level roles)

How can we best progress when things often feel ambiguous? This session explores strategies to help work through uncertainties with greater confidence.

Life for health and care colleagues has been challenging over this period of covid and there is ambiguity around the role that colleagues can play within the new ICS structures. Greater collaboration with local authorities and wider public services brings with it complexity, whilst the challenge of a significant shift in healthcare organisation requires new ways of thinking.

This session has been specifically commissioned to help process and learn to live with that uncertainty and ambiguity, to facilitate a positive shift in perspective and to discuss ideas with other colleagues about useful mindset strategies.

During the session you will:

• Learn how to focus on controlling those things that are under your control
• Learn to better process and even embrace the inevitable uncertainty of life
• Understand the difference between resisting and acceptance
• Identify your healthy comforts
• Develop a realistic and constructive perspective
• Agree personal action points
