Are YOU at risk of being a ‘Harold’?

Definition of a Harold: Harolds come in all shapes and sizes, sometimes they are men, sometimes women. Often Harolds are simply people who leave things to the last minute (and sometimes wait until it’s too late!) Sometimes Harolds are people who think that their opinions aren’t very important and shy away from sharing them with others (which is a shame because PeakCare thinks that the views and experiences of all our Members are extremely important). Sometimes Harolds are just very busy people who find it difficult to find the time to meet and collaborate with others (even though we think that it’s very important that they do). Sometimes Harolds prefer to leave systems advocacy to others (even though we think that this is a responsibility shared by all).

Don’t be a Harold! Make sure that your organisation is well-represented at each of PeakCare’s Roundtables closest to where your organisation delivers services. Don’t leave it to others – have your say too!
