Cutting the crap

Avoiding the merry go round

There are some simple , but very effective ways to improve health care services in Australia- the point of this blog----- but they have to be implemented and not be stiffled by the obfsucation inherent amongst the powerbrokers and particilalry the bureaubrats .
Here are two examples and both relate to dealing with incompetence in governemnet advisory services
1. Resist innovative talk - note not theory just acreless innovative talk by those who get their brilliance 2nd hand esp (Empires get started on the backs of innovation).
THE POINT
The point is that caring is OFTEN not rocket science its more about dedication and application and they are the very things the toyboys talk destroys . Get used to it -- governemnets are not meant to be efficient - at best only mildy efective !( see Chruchill below)
2. Encourage innovative practice within institutions . No .....before you think this is more music to the CEO's ears, let me remind you about swift kicks to those who carelessly offer "innovation" as bait or whatever - wastemakers in the CEO branch are a dime a dozen . innovators are a dime a dozen and waste taxpayers time - both inside and outside the house (ask the shipowners off newcastle TODAY)

If you are going to run performance pay the only one that works is the one where you recognise commitment to care ( years in the job - seniority - see,, even its not new !!!)To paraphrase a winners style . " we have found ........ to the worst form of governance excepting all others that have been tried" ( after churchill) .
