Briefing

Joined Up Thinking
Joined up thinking is bringing radical change to the public sector.
The transformation has started with

  • partnership working
  • Social Exclusion Unit projects
  • community planning
  • joint performance indicators
  • third sector delivery of services

For central departments, agencies, local councils, police and health trusts it means:

  • new thinking
  • new policies
  • new ways of delivering services

Joined Up Communicating

Joined up government means joined up listening to what is happening in other parts of the public sector. It means joined up speaking to colleagues in other disciplines
New communication strategies are required for:

  • finding out about developments in policy making and about governance and management issues
  • learning from the experience of others from different public sector areas
  • understanding the range of good management practices and techniques
  • making personal and corporate views know to a broad public service audience
  • publishing success stories
