That was a really professional performance!
Professionalism – The Self Interest Model
• Scarce/Complex skill that is in demand• Form a club• Make it difficult to join• Introduce restrictive practices• Self regulate• Exercise power through vested interest• Improve bargaining position• Increases wages
Net Result - Die rich!
Professionalism – The Common Interest Model
• Strong desire to serve the public good• Failure will let people down• Form a Society • Social Insurance – back scratching• Encourage people to join• Share knowledge and information freely• Help each other• Aspire to be the best• Seek the Truth
Net Result - Die Happy!
“Secondly, the end of the internal market in health is part of the wider Welsh Assembly Government determination to make co-operation, rather than competition, the bedrock of public service delivery in Wales. A re-invigorated public service ethos of partnership will be encouraged.”
