Achieving Transformation - help shape a new model

The third sector in Leeds has set itself a challenge: to achieve meaningful and lasting transformation. No mean feat. It requires a shared understanding of the issues at hand and a commitment to an agreed way forward from all of those required to make the change happen. 

The Transform Leeds programme is developing leadership, collaborative ways of working and shared space both on and off-line for the sector to pool information and resources. 

This alone will not equal transformation. A radical and innovative new model for leadership and delivery of support services to the sector is essential if we are to meet the future needs of our communities.

The Transform Leeds Commission is the vehicle through which we intend to thrash out how we can achieve this vision, develop creative and credible solutions for change and ensure the recommendations are owned by all of those who wish to be part of the journey of change. 

The work of the Commission will run throughout the lifetime of the Transform Leeds project, reporting in Summer 2013. There will be five periods of consultation with Commission members meeting in between to consider the findings. 

What would you ask?

Commission members are leaders from across the public private and third sectors in Leeds and beyond.

At their first meeting in October they identified a number of key themes which frame the range of questions which need to be considered; 
  • Civic Enterprise

  • Fit for the Future

  • Making Leeds Great

We now want to know if you agree with these themes and what you would ask about the future of support and development services.
