Yorkshire GP practice looks outside for change from within
A Yorkshire GP surgery’s practice management team experienced misunderstandings over roles and responsibilities after a reorganisation.

Instead of pushing him towards a plan, Mandala Leaders helped him to make his own top-to-bottom appraisal of his role and communications with colleagues while evaluating the wider impacts for government clients and citizens of his career developing national health care programmes.
