Why employ managers in the first place? frown

That is, why aren't tech services in the NHS run by Chief (Master) Technicians?

Meanwhile, in the real (commercial) world, the manager, managing director etc. of a tech services business is usually either the owner of the company, or has a heavy financial stake in it. That's real responsibility. What goes on under the banner of "management" in the NHS is, in actual fact, just playing at it. Even failure gets rewarded in the so-called Public Sector. Go on, tell me I'm wrong!


If you don't inspect ... don't expect.
