		My criticisms are based on theory and, moreover, are coupled with better ways to solve the same problems.
		While the interest in the issues I raise increases amongst those who are subjected to the 'improvement' regime, I rarely receive replies from ministers or officials in government.
		Despite getting involved with the public sector only over the last year, I now have a series of practical examples of systems thinking in action where significant improvements have been achieved in a short time, often in weeks.
