I'm cleaning up some old drafts and want to surface/link to some useful resources. Guide And Toolkit For Communities Of Practice Available:

"Guide And Toolkit For Communities Of Practice Available

The NHS Information Authority has compiled a guide called “Getting to 7 - Cultivating Communities of Practice: the 7 Stages of Development” which we would like to make available to our members.

Communities of Practice (CoPs) are informal structures and not part of formal management line structures. They comprise members who do similar work, employ similar skills and face similar issues or have some other common interest in the work environment.

If you or your organisation is interested in providing support for multi working and multi agency partnership working, building trust and collaborative working between informal and formal groups/communities, then this is for you. Also included is a toolkit of techniques and ideas."
