Tamsin Fulton, Public World, and Alieke Van Dijken – Q&A
Tamsin Fulton is the Director of Public World, Buurtzorg’s partner in the UK, while Alieke Van Dijken has worked within Dutch organisation Buurtzorg as a Community Nurse in Utrecht, Holland, since 2009.
Tamsin and Alieke answered a lot of questions from the audience, as members of the audience were really interested in the idea and wanted to learn more!
In this short video, Tamsin and Alieke answer questions about how career progression works at Buurtzorg, and how they manage difficult situations when staff disagree, without a manager to intervene.
