A very effective leadership team have ensured that the right people, action plans, knowledge and

progress Phased incentives and the star ratings plus clear focus on this have provided the necessary levers
and put capacity to deliver on a firm footing.
The stage is borderline 2/3. Programme and project management and data collection and
Stage of monitoring are all fully established and there is full confidence that all of the necessary strategies
