The aim of the event was to showcase the work of our clients who have been embedding a meaningful focus on outcomes into their day-to-day work using OutNav. We also wanted to have a conversation about how people are working together to put Scotland’s outcome approach into action.
We invite you to read and share our event report, which provides a short overview of the day and reflects on the main learning points. This report will be of interest to those that attended the event, but also anyone looking to put outcome approaches into action.
Resources from the day referred to within the report can be found further down this page.
