Foundation in management and leadership: a multi-method evaluation
This report presents a multi-method evaluation of feedback from the inaugural cohort (2012-2013) of Cumbria PFT’s Foundation in Leadership and Management programme (FIM). The FIM was developed through a preparatory working group, including staff and managers, to identify and target specific needs which were then cross referenced with national accredited tools such as the leadership competency framework and NHS change model. The first participating cohort was large and highly diverse in role and grade, which is an issue reflected in feedback throughout

Nato Fuori Posto: Exploring Placelessness in Dean Serravalle’s “The Buried Tree”
Gianluca Agostinelli Published online: 2017-04-05 | DOI: https://doi.org/ 10.1515/culture-2017-0002 Abstract Building on the seminal scholarship of humanistic geographer, Edward Relph, this paper explores the postmodern notion of placelessness in Canadian-Italian literature. The author argues that placelessness can afford bi-cultural writers, and their literary protagonists, a degree of productive peripherality that works to deconstruct and undercut the authoritative dynamic of a culturally..

'Meet me at the left lion': encounters within Nottingham's Old Market Square
Architecture can form the structure for internal or external gathering places, however, geographer Doreen Massey defnes places, not by their physical characteristics, but as the points of interconnecting fows of people, goods, communications, memories, and imagination, positing that all places are meeting places. At the heart of the city centre, Nottingham’s Old Market Square is where the local inhabitants go to work and play; protest, mourn and celebrate. It is a place of formal and informal encounters, where friends and acquaintances meet, by chance or design; where strangers might exchange a glance or a few words; where people watch other people. Originally a shared market place for Saxon and Norman settlements, the earliest maps of the city show that the footprint of the square has remained the same for many hundreds of years, though its design and edge have gone through numerous transformations. The latest remodelling was undertaken by internationally renowned landscape architecture practice Gustafson Porter: unveiled in 2007, it has won a raft of awards including the inaugural RIBA CABE Public Space Award. Drawing on work undertaken with architecture students to explore individual experiences of the square, the paper will outline some of the fows, past and present, as well as the physical elements, which contribute to the square’s success as a place of encounter
Exploring climate change through the language of art
In 2013 Prince Edward Island fabric artist Catherine Miller joined a panel of scientists and government officials to lend her voice to a discussion about the effects of Anthropogenic climate change on Prince Edward Island, Canada. Her installation entitled Changing Environs hung just outside the lecture hall, including Rising Sea Level, PEI, 2010, demonstrating blatantly and poignantly what will happen to the beloved Island when the Northumberland Strait inevitably rises.
Artists will go to great lengths to protest the ways in which humans ravage the environment – and to demonstrate the results. This is hardly new: for centuries writers and artists have been producing work that brings social issues to the fore. Sometimes what they create reaches audiences at the intellectual level, but more often it grabs people emotionally. At the same time, artists are acutely attached to their landscapes, and wish to tend what geographer Edward Relph calls “fields of care,” the places they call home, documenting them before they change irrevocably or disappear altogether.
This chapter explores how humans convey information through the language of art, and highlights some of the efforts artists have made in protesting climate change. The chapter will segue into presentations by Island visual artists Rilla Marshall and Brenda Whiteway, who create art in response to how they see Anthropogenic climate change impacting their island
