Kia ora e te whānau
Well hello there. It's great to be back in touch with you all again, with the latest and greatest on all things Maggie!
Project Progress - we're on track.
We're mid-way into the project now and are still on track to meet the two deliverables:
End of August - delivery of the plan to operationalise collaboration between Canterbury West Coat and Otago Southland Divisions.
End October - delivery of the business case for unification.
The focus since our last update has been on the finance, systems and technology analysis, to map our current state, identify future opportunities and validate the benefits of this transformation. One of the common themes in the kaimahi workshops was the desire for singular tech, systems and processes that supported us to deliver a more consistent, streamlined experience for our Clients. So this piece of work was pretty important!
To ensure that we get it right, the fabulous Jasmin Hill joined us on Monday this week, to support the Technology & Systems workstream. Jasmin brings with her a background in tech and healthcare and is the perfect person to support us with this mahi. As well as supporting Project Maggie she's also working on the national Model of Care, so if you haven't met her yet you likely will at some stage.
Kaimahi workshops - what you all had to say.
We thought you'd be keen to see the output of the kaimahi workshops and some of the feedback and ideas of your Te Waipounamu colleagues, so we've put together a summary of the notes we gathered from the different activities. You can check these out via the links below:
The first thing you'll notice, is how similar the feedback was. This reinforced for us, the importance of this project and it was so great to see how aligned you all were on what you wanted for the future. You'll also notice a few gaps here and there - this was generally where a group got very excited about one topic, and ran out of time to work on the others!
We also put together a wordcloud, summarising your 'one-word' feelings about Maggie, which as you can see, were really positive.

Maggie website - new content coming!
Your Kaimahi Advisory Group are hard at work gathering the content for the Who's Who section of the Maggie website. Thanks to those of you who've provide a bio and photo for this. Each region is doing something slightly different so we're looking forward to seeing what they come up with! Once we have the content it will take a wee bit of time to get it on the site, so we hope to have this ready for you over the next couple of weeks.
Annual General Meetings
Next week is the Nelson Tasman AGM, followed the week after by Otago Southland. At each AGM, members will be introduced to Maggie and learn about the 'why' for the project. Each of the AGM's will be doing this in a slightly different way, based on their region and members and the way they prefer to communicate with them. We can't wait for them to hear about Maggie and what we are seeking to achieve for their communities.
Thanks for taking the time to read this latest update. If you are keen to know more about anything you've read about today, or have a question about the project in general, get in touch with me or your kaimahi advisory group representative at any time - we'd love to chat!
