| Annotation | In 2013, Slough Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) for older people became one of the first Listening into Action (LiA) Pioneer Teams in Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. LiA is a method of change that allows ideas to emerge from the grassroots of an organisation, to create changes that are readily bought into by staff. The Team's Principal Psychologist (first author) submitted the LiA project as an idea for service development and led the Team through the piece of work over one year. The resulting changes in well-being were monitored longitudinally. Towards the end of the process, staff were re-interviewed, and the authors thematically analysed interview answers. In summary, this report describes a service development approach and illustrates how psychological leadership can galvanise teams. (RH). |
