Across the world, organisations and public systems are under
strain – facing rising demand, constrained resources and reforms that seldom
deliver lasting improvement.
One System tells the inside story of a rare
exception.
Over more than a decade, Canterbury radically reimagined how its
health system could work. The aim was simple: to act as one system, organised around
people rather than institutions.
This new way of working was tested under the most difficult
conditions: the Canterbury earthquakes, the Christchurch mosque attacks and the
COVID-19 pandemic.
Written by two of those who led the work, One System offers
a candid and practical account of enabling transformation in real conditions, under
constant pressure and without the illusion of a perfect master plan.
Grounded in health care but relevant far beyond it, One System is
for leaders, clinicians, governors, policymakers and anyone grappling with
change in a complex system.
