Conflicting pressures and constraints
Im to busy to be bothered (I cant manage myselfeffectively how on earth can I manage others!)

Its natural and important for there to be a social order
how else would I justify being paid twice as much!!
Lack of clarity about purpose and outcomes
My role keeps changing and I am continually being todeliver a different set of outcomes

So theyre arguing in my mothers house aboutwhos going to do what.(Service user quoted by Charlesworth 2003)

Health is not a product, but a process of interaction withinand between individuals and the societies in which theylive.
The recognition of health and welfare within society as aninteractive, adaptive process without an end becomes theonly creative basis for strategies, policies and practices.
In this interactive process, by definition, the ability tocollaborate is essential.
(Loxley 1997 p.29)
