1The Race
2Once upon a time there was an NHS rowing team
3The NHS and Japan agreed to hold a race. Each
boat would contain eight men.
4Both teams worked really hard to get into the
best shape. On the day of the first race, both
teams were in a similar condition. The Japanese
team won by one mile.

6The mood in the NHS team was really close to
freezing point. The top management decided to win
the race next year. So they established a
committee of analysts (with representation from
the voluntary sector and a patient) to observe
the situation and recommend an appropriate
solution

14After several months the consultants came to the
conclusion that there were too many captains and
too few rowers in the NHS team. A solution was
proposed based on this analysis the structure of
the NHS team had to change
15as of today, there will be only four captains in
the team led by two Service Managers and a
Director. Besides that, they suggested to
improve the rowers working environment and offer
a reward and recognition scheme to incentivise
high performance

19The NHS management dismissed the rower from the
team (following a long and drawn out competency
and capability procedure) , on grounds of his
unsatisfactory performance
20but a bonus was paid to the management team for
the strong leadership and motivation that the
team had showed during the preparation phase
21The consulting company prepared a new analysis,
which showed that the strategy was good, the
motivation was O.K, but the tool used was
sub-standard and had to be improved

22Currently, a new NHS design committee has been
formed and is having a new boat designed. Human
Remains (HR) have advertised nationally for a new
rower.
