After several months and several attempts to change a small section of Public Services in Wales, I am getting quite concerned that Public Services in Wales may be  unable to change. The reason I have found so far is 'politics' with a small 'p'. I don't mean the guiding principles  of public policy, but the small personal ones which protect the 'status, power and money' of individuals. In one sense its the "I did it this way, yes it was difficult and painful, but if I did it then they will do it that way as well" is used as an excuse constantly throughout our intervention, more so than private sector which is really dissappointing. Can we get over this.....I'm not sure! What do you  think?
