My Team Around Me Exchange Groups

My Team Around Me is more than an operational model. For system change to occur, we need to create the right conditions.

To enable best practice, collaboration and relationships need to be established across organisational and sector boundaries and across hierarchical structures. My Team Around Me creates a whole team approach around a client i.e. a team at all levels within the organisations involved in the care of a person. And each level informs and enables one another.

Changing Futures is facilitating a number of MTAM Exchange Groups that provide the means, support, or conditions to empower clients, professionals, and services to work towards the four MTAM objectives.

Find out more about each one below. If you have any questions about the groups, please contact Tom Dunn, our MTAM Concept Lead: thomas.dunn@changingfuturesbristol.co.uk

  • MTAM Practitioners Forum

    Primarily attended by MTAM Practitioners, it brings together professionals from services to learn and support each other in working toward a more trauma-informed ‘one team’ approach and deliver on the MTAM objectives. Conclusions from the MTAM Practitioners Forum can inform how professionals incorporate the four MTAM Objectives in service delivery while blocks and barriers can be escalated to the MTAM Systems Stewards Group with the aim of being resolved at the lowest level possible.

  • MTAM Systems Stewards Group

    The Systems Stewards Group brings together managers and members of the senior leadership teams of services to deliver MTAM collectively. Together, they will explore the parameters, relationships, constraints, and opportunities of each other’s service, using reflections around client stories. The group will provide permission and the resources for MTAM practitioners to deliver the MTAM approach and respond to clients and operational needs.

  • MD Transformation Board

    The Multiple Disadvantage Transformation Board has been established to support the city in addressing multiple disadvantage and deliver on the city’s Multiple Disadvantage Strategy. A s part of the team, they will provide resource, policy and permission to enable the team around the client to function.
