I'd agree with Anon 5.13pm. CEOs and Exec Teams in the patch were robustly held to account. Delivery whether on performance or finance wasn't optional, you were expected to deliver all commitments. Never was patient safety or quality expected to be compromised, it wasn't an either/or with performance. Quarterly reviews with the SHA were tough in tone but entirely reasonable. And yes, the accountability was personal, not just organisational. If you take the salary, you should expect accountability.
