Delivering the Future Together
We’re on an exciting journey to Deliver the Future Together. By embracing change and new ways of working, we’ll secure a successful and sustainable future and achieve our goals of becoming an employer, partner and place shaper of choice.
Our future challenges
As we move into the future, the nature of the challenges we face and how we respond will be
very
different. Having leaders that can create and lead an organisation that is forward thinking,
collaborative,
and inclusive, which embraces continuous improvement and holds itself to account will be
important
in addressing these challenges.
It is essential that we adopt a change mindset and continuously strive for improvement by looking up and out for new ideas – using insight from our own internal sources to deliver change in these challenging times.
We need to be confident and work at pace and we need to support each other by creating a trusted, transparent, and inclusive environment where people feel safe to grow and innovate. We need to work collaboratively and innovatively with each other and with partners across Oxfordshire and beyond. Working beyond our walls with volunteers, commissioned services, maintained schools and academies, and the employees of our strategic partners will create better solutions and experiences for the residents of Oxfordshire.
