The well-led practice: where compliance meets culture
The well-led practice: where compliance meets culture
This webinar aims to help practice owners, managers and clinical leads understand how CQC’s 'well-led' expectations are not just about ticking boxes – they’re a blueprint for building stronger, more resilient teams.
By linking compliance to culture, leadership and performance, this session will explain how you can meet regulatory standards while creating a practice people want to work in and patients want to return to.
Learning outcomes
- Describe the five pillars of a well-led practice as aligned with CQC expectations
- Understand how compliance can drive rather than limit team engagement and performance
- Identify key cultural and psychological safety indicators in their practice
- Apply simple leadership tools to build clarity, accountability and growth
- Begin developing an action plan to embed values, vision and systems into everyday practice.
