"Joining the Jabali Men's Network was a turning point in my career. As a senior nurse from an Asian background, I often felt isolated in my leadership role. This network not only provided me with a sense of community but also offered invaluable resources for professional development. The mentorship program, in particular, helped me refine my leadership skills and gave me the confidence to implement innovative practices in my team. I'm deeply grateful for the doors this network has opened for me and for the ongoing support of its members."

"The Jabali Men's Network is more than just a professional group; it's a powerful force for change in the healthcare sector. As a Caribbean nurse leader, I've witnessed firsthand how this network champions diversity and fights against systemic racism within the NHS. The annual conference is a highlight, offering a platform for meaningful dialogue and actionable strategies to make healthcare more inclusive. I'm proud to be part of a network that not only talks about change but actively works towards it."

- *Maximise Efficiency:* Efficiency amplifies our impact. It's about doing more with less, ensuring our resources are used in the most effective way possible.
- *Solid Foundations Matter:* Attention to detail in laying our foundations ensures our future stability and success. This meticulous approach underpins everything we do.
- *Embrace Disagreement:* Healthy debate is vital. We value those who can disagree with respect, commit to a decision, and move forward united.

- *Persistence Pays Off:* Pursue our goals with polite relentlessness. Persistence, coupled with respect and empathy, opens doors and overcomes obstacles.These principles, though not our primary focus, remain a vital part of our ethos. They remind us of our journey, guide our actions, and inspire us to achieve greatness together as part of the Jabali family.

Improvement Coaching: More Than Tools and Methods
I was once coaching a team working on an inpatient hospital ward. When they looked at their data, they found that people were waiting a long time to be admitted to their ward. When people needed to be admitted, they often had no beds available.
