Responsibilities of Leaders
• Support collaborative team • Develop a plan and guide the spread
or scale-
up of improvement beyond the collaborative team (i.e., within and
across facilities, care homes, etc.)
Improvement at Collaborative or System Level
RESULTS
Ideas
Will
Execution
Discussion
What have you done to actively support your collaborative team(s)?
Have you begun to prepare your facility or
municipality to scale-up improvement from the collaborative team to
other sites? Are there other roles that leaders have played
during the collaborative?
Supporting the Collaborative Team
Review their aim and make the connection between their work and the
goals for the municipality Set up review meetings at least monthly
to discuss
their monthly progress reports; remove barriers to progress Visit
the site of the improvement to learn what the
team is doing Promote the team’s work. Talk about the
importance
of the team’s work in internal and external meetings – any
opportunity that will make the work visible to others
The Scale-up Framework P6
Scale
Idea Leadership, communication, social networks, culture of urgency
and persistence
Learning systems, data systems, infrastructure for scale- up, human
capacity for scale-up, capability for scale-up,
sustainability
Readiness for Moving up the Sequence
Topic is a strategic initiative within the organization An
executive(s) is responsible for the effort A person or team will
manage the day-to-day scale-up
activities Pilot site(s) is relatively self-sufficient and has at
least
some initial evidence about the positive impact of the change,
i.e., has developed the “model” or scalable unit
The Scale-up Framework P8
Scale
Idea Leadership, communication, social networks, culture of urgency
and persistence
Learning systems, data systems, infrastructure for scale- up, human
capacity for scale-up, capability for scale-up,
sustainability
What is a scalable unit?
Smallest facsimile of the whole system Representative slice of the
whole system Contains elements (i.e., people, processes,
patients/families, and infrastructure) that are common to the
system Produces a result that is representative of the whole system
result (i.e., can predict system level improvement based on the
scalable unit)
Purpose of Developing the Scalable Unit
Generate the set of interventions (improvements) that will achieve
the goal, i.e., change package Test bed the infrastructure
capabilities Generate will, interest for spread
The Role of the Collaborative Team in the Framework
Conducts tests that contribute to the development of the scalable
unit Helps to make the case for change Makes it easier for others
to do the work Develops the messengers
Leader’s Role
Setting the agenda for change Assigning responsibility Providing
resources and support Monitoring and guiding the effort Sustaining
improvements
Developing an Aim for Scale-up
What improvement(s) will you take to scale:
Target Goals, i.e., whose lives will be different because of your
effort? What impact do you expect to have?
Who are the adopters, i.e., who do you need to reach:
Time Frame, i.e., by when?
Creating a Municipal Leadership Team for Scale-up
Provides direction for the scale-up effort; monitors progress
Several areas of expertise and/or responsibility to consider for
the team include: – the designated municipal leader; – a day-to-day
leader of the scale-up effort; – representatives from the pilot
site(s) – representatives from the target sites, including leaders
from those sites – and others, including facility leadership;
clinical expertise; and support
services such as information technology, human resources, and
quality improvement.

Types of Leadership for Scale-up
Nolan, K; Nielsen, G; Schall, M . "Developing Strategies to Spread
Improvements." From Front Office to Front Line: Essential Issues
for Health Care Leaders: Joint Commission on Accreditation of
Healthcare Organizations, 2005, p. 62..
Role of the Executive Sponsor
Coaches other leaders Supports day-to-day leader – Addresses
resource issues – Responds to system issues – Sets
expectations
Carries message (sense-making)
Role of the Day-to-day Leader
Assists Executive Sponsor in creating spread plan Guides the
execution of the spread plan Leads Spread Team Monitors outcomes
and progress and shares with Executive Sponsor Communicates! Both
up and down!
Creating Adoption Mechanisms
Build a communication plan Identify and utilize social networks
Foster a culture of urgency and persistence
Purpose of the Communication Plan
Build awareness Move adopters from decision to action Support and
mentor adopters
Creating a Communications Plan
What audience(s) do you need to reach? What will be your
message(s)? Who will deliver the message(s)? What channels of
communication will you use? What story do you have to tell (from
the work of the pilot teams) How will you review your
communications plan and make adjustments?

The WAY in Which We Communicate is Important
SHARE INFORMATION
SHAPE BEHAVIOUR
Personal Touch letters cards postcards
Interactive Activities telephone email visits seminars learning
sets modeling
Face-to-face one-to-one mentoring shadowing
Creating Support Structures
Learning system – How people will be connected to learn
improvements
Data systems – Identify data, collection methods, method for review
and
accountability Infrastructure – Staffing, resources, communication
systems, etc.
Capability for scale-up – What improvement skills and training are
needed
Sustainability – Creating reliable systems (i.e., the train
tracks)

Instructions: 1. Please type in the change you are making as brief
bullet narrative (i.e. use new SSI protocol). Use a new row for
each major change you are testing. (To insert row, place cursor on
the row number directly below last row used and click to highlight
that row. Go to insert and click on row. A row will have been
inserted.) 2. Place an X in the column related to the component of
the change package to which this change is related (high hazard,
reconciliation, medication ordering-dispensing-administrant,
culture, periop, other). Then place an X or date in the columns
related to each of the phase of testing, implementation or spread
your team has accomplished with this change. Please note that as
you move from one phase to the next (i.e. from "testing" to
"implementation begun on the pilot unit") you will have an X or
date in more than one column related to the same change. (note:
date is preferable when posting this concurrently. Definitions:
Testing involves trying a change. When we are testing we are free
to try and to discard changes; there is no assumption that the
change tested is permanent yet. (Collecting baseline data, meeting,
brainstorming, and/or planning to change may be valuable activities
but are not tests of change. We do not have a column for these
activities.) Implementation is taking a successful change and
building it in to the way the entire pilot population or pilot unit
does their work. Spread is the process of taking a successful
implementation from a pilot unit and replicating that change or
package of changes beyond the pilot unit or population into other
parts of the organization, into other organizations, or into a new
area of focus (i.e. from people with diabetes to people with
cardiovascular disease).
