is:

What’s the evidence?
The failure of large scale
transformational change projects is
rarely due to the content or
structure of the plans that are put
into action
To make transformational change
happen we need to connect networks
of people who ‘want’ to contribute

Stages of change model
@horizonsnhs
Transtheoretical model of behaviour
change
Prochaska, DiClemente & Norcross (1992)
@horizonsnhs
The model has been used with
health related behaviours:
smoking cessation
exercise adoption
alcohol and drug use
weight control
fruit and vegetable intake
domestic violence
HIV prevention
use of sunscreens to prevent skin cancer
medication compliance
mammography screening
It works for
organisational and
service change too!

What qualities make

Communicating

What qualities make
an effective communicator?
Listening
Observing
Empathy
Questioning
Being present
Talking
“To effectively communicate,
we must realise that we are all
different in the way we
perceive the world and use this
understanding as a guide to
our communication with others.”
Anthony Robbins
What is emotional intelligence (EQ)?
What you say (or what you
believe you are saying!)
What is
heard/
understood
Expectations Hopes
Fears
Previous
experiences
Prejudice
Mood/state of mind
Distractions –
internal and
external
Assumptions
Fight, flight, or freeze
The EQ seesaw
“The single biggest problem
in communication is the
illusion that it
has taken place.”
George Bernard Shaw
“The biggest
communication problem is
that we do not listen to
understand.
We listen to reply.”
Listening attentively – am I giving my full attention?
Listening accurately – am I understanding what they
are saying?
Listening empathetically – do I really appreciate
their feelings?
Listen generatively – are you helping the other
person through your dialogue?
Ways of Listening
Reflecting – word for word
Summarising– precis of their words
Paraphrasing – putting their words in to mine
Pre-framing– “I think I heard you say…”
“Or in other words…”

So What?
• Nature of social media means content is
fleeting, even viral content.
• Millions of people might have seen your
content, but has it had an impact? How do
you know?
OR
@horizonsnhs
Spread and Reach
• Focus on maximising spread and reach,
rather than trying to ‘go viral’.
• Share good content that is consistent with
your brand
• Find your people – communities, social
movements, hashtags
• Calls to action
@horizonsnhs
Influence
…but numbers are not the whole picture.
What is the story behind the numbers?
What impact have you had?
@horizonsnhs
Influence and Impact
It IS about
• Engagement: starting
conversations
• Communities: like-minded
people collaborating
• Quality, not quantity
• Generosity and support
• Inclusivity: all voices are
welcome
• Authenticity, not ‘playing the
game’
(and these factors are why #MatExp works so well on Twitter)
@horizonsnhs
Activity!
How does your current Twitter brand fit
with what you want to be known for?
Think about
• Do you need to make any
changes?
• If yes, what changes will
they be?
• How will you action those
changes?
• Think SMART goals
@horizonsnhs
Maximise your reach, spread,
influence and impact
• Be authentic
• Be generous – be kind, give advice, share
interesting content
• Pump up the volume: use
complementary platforms such as blogs,
Steller, Storify to give your messages and
voice longevity (this can also help you
become a thought leader in your area of
specialism).
@horizonsnhs
What kind of content has the
best reach and spread?
• Stories with high
emotion – whether
happiness or anger
• The WOW or aaah
factor
• Social currency

• Be polite

    Interactional Small talk Polite, fillsa gap. You might say nothing of importance. Person might not be listening. Doesn’t really achieve anything. Transactional Asking someone to do something for you. Ordering a coffee. Polite (hopefully!) and (hopefully!) achieves accomplishing a task. Transformational Engaging in genuine dialogue. Involves proper listening. Might be uncomfortable. Increases our awareness and understanding. Builds trust and rapport. Creates a shift, a change.
