Welsh health board, Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University (ABMU), recognised the potential to provide even higher levels of service improvement and better patient outcomes through developing their finance teams in becoming effective business partners.

ABMU Health Board, Finance and Business Partner, Malcom Turner says: "I truly believe that I am now in a better position to partner the business effectively at ABMU Board. Attending the programme has given me some headroom to analyse, and reflect on, past and current approaches to the role. This can only enhance how I tackle the challenge going forward.

"This programme has also allowed me to realise what I, operational colleagues, fellow business partners, and indeed the wider finance function needs to consider for us to move forward together effectively.”
