Piecing together the Quango Reforms – a practical guide for managing transitions

Piecing together the Quango Reforms – a practical guide for managing transitions pulls together a selection of case studies, lessons learned, and experiences from public bodies such as the Hearing Aid Council, the Learning and Skills Council and the General Medical Council, who have already managed major organisational change.

As past experiences reveal, it is very easy to get transitions wrong. By capturing lessons learned from across the public sector and drawing attention to common pitfalls, we hope that this guide will provide practical advice to ALBs and Departments currently managing transitions and reforms in order to avoid ‘reinventing the wheel’ in the future.

Cabinet Office Checklist

PUBLIC CHAIRS' FORUM WEB APPLICATION

Cabinet Office have recently produced a checklist to help Arms Length Bodies and Departments to ensure that the most important aspects of managing transitions are considered. Inevitably, no one transition is identical to another one and depending on the type of transition you are involved in, there will be certain things within the checklist that don't apply to the specific circumstances of your transition.

So, rather than having to explore which parts are relevant to your circumstances, the Public Chairs' Forum has designed an application that will do this for you. By answering some simple questions about your transition, the application will produce a customised report and checklist, ensuring you focus on the right issues at the right time. We hope that the combination of the checklist and application will help to bring clarity, focus and practical solutions to an often complex process. Download your personalised report here.
