Join a leadership workshop in Inverness to explore kindness, listening and what matters most in care and support.

Working in partnership, with Public Services Delivery Scotland, Scottish Care and Fife HSCP, we are delighted to invite you to our upcoming national leadership session on 10 September from 12pm to 3:30pm.

If you work across social work, social care, health, or third, independent and voluntary sectors, this workshop is for you!

So, why should you attend?

At the heart of this session is a simple but powerful question: “What matters to you?”

Together, we’ll explore how this question can transform leadership, relationships, and outcomes across services.


The session will be hosted by:

· Tommy Whitelaw – National Lead, Person Centred Voices, the ALLIANCE

· Susan Nevill – Social Work and Social Care Lead, Leading to Change, Public Services Delivery Scotland

· Diane Roth – Organisational Development and Culture Specialist, Fife Health and Social Care Partnership

· Gwen Harrison – Independent Sector Lead Highland, Scottish Care


The key themes that will be covered are:

· Intelligent kindness and the power of empathy in action

· The ‘What Matters to You?’ approach, and how we can understand people’s values and priorities

· How to foster respectful, collaborative cultures

· Self-care, and sustaining ourselves to better support others

· Active listening to ensure we are truly valuing every voice

· Insights from Public Services Delivery Scotland, which will provide additional perspectives and tools to support leadership


The workshop is being held at: Inverness Cathedral, Kenneth Street Hall, 9-11 Kenneth Street, Inverness, IV3 5NR
