This resource and interactive model sets out to explore how best to plan for the future using our greatest asset – the workforce. Their skills, values, commitment and insights can go a long way to inform business planning.
The enabling roles our professional workforce need to play are important as a high number of people, who are not employed professionally in care, take up roles as carers and providers of support. The professional workforce now and in the future needs to have that enabling mindset to co-produce services that make the most of the skills and resources of the workforce, in its widest possible definition.
That will not happen overnight but by 2025, when the profile of the workforce has become markedly different, our processes, pipelines and management practices will be in place to support, rather than hinder, the workforce.
