Testimonials

  • Professor Helen Bevan

    Lesley has a phenomenal knowledge base and expertise in improvement science and an outstanding track record in transforming diagnostic services.

  • Cindy Jimmerson, Lean Healthcare West, Montana, USA (Author of: A3 problem solving for Healthcare and Value stream mapping for Healthcare made easy)

    Lesley Wright presented at our annual conference, reporting on the advance of healthcare in the NHS related to Lean. Her enthusiasm and creativity in the work that she guided were clearly contributors to the success of the improvements.

  • Dr Simon Knowles, National Clinical Lead for Cyto-Histopathology

    Lesley’s approach to pathway improvement is rigorous and pivots around a strong focus on baseline data. She approaches each new project with genuine clarity and, because of a commitment to “learning by doing” she is able to impart a similar critical vision to the clinical teams she works with. The true measure of success in continuous quality improvement is sustainability. It is a testament to Lesley’s leadership that so many of the pilot sites continue to survive and thrive at a high level, unsupervised up to five years after the initial intervention.
