Buurtzorg Britain and Ireland
Working for caring places and healthy communities
Unleashing creativity through self-managed teams
We help purpose-driven organisations produce great outcomes and enriched jobs through self-managed team work.
Drawing on our founder’s three decades experience in 70 countries, we know what it takes to build trust-based cultures to support freedom with responsibility at work.
Since 2016, when we began working with Buurtzorg, we have supported radical change in more than 40 health and care organisations in Britain and Ireland.
Now we’re also working in social housing, social enterprises and charities – in fact, wherever leaders and professionals want to unleash the creativity of their people to produce great results and cut waste.
To arrange a no obligation, initial chat about how we could help you, please contact us.
