This video explores effective leadership by looking at the roles of managers at two children's centres who work to integrate services.
At Early Days Children's Centre, Sheffield, manager Jo Zasada co-ordinates a range of services including midwifery, community health and speech and language therapy.
Later, at a staff development day, we see internal and external staff work together on team-building exercises and assessing the outcomes of their service.
At Allens Croft Children's Centre, Birmingham, manager Laura Brodie uses a model of delegated leadership, focusing on effective communication through regular meetings.
Appraisal and planning sessions help staff development, while the impact of the integrated services is also demonstrated through the experience of service users.
