Rethinking your service delivery model, with David Hammond
Today’s guest: David Hammond
If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be the CEO of a local council, ask David. He’s taken that role in three different local councils, and now focuses his attention on sourcing, selecting and shaping leaders with Sheffield Recruitment. Plus, he’s a Director here at Business Lab.
David has a unique perspective to share on how organisations can shift their service delivery model from one of command and control, to one that devolves more power to those who are directly affected by your work.
You can contact David on LinkedIn or though the Contact Us page on our website.
