Vanda Leary takes digital lead at iESE

Vanda Leary, who has worked with iESE since 2010, has been appointed as Business Lead Digital.

She brings a wealth of valuable experience, which will see her concentrate on the development of iESE's digital offering - both for its own consultancy work and as a commercial offer.

Vanda said she was delighted with the expansion of her remit, which has so far seen the successful launch of the CareCubed tool, which replaces the Care Funding Calculator. "We are currently working on a CareCubed App and have a range of other digital tools under evaluation and in development - look out for more news about these later this year."

One such tool in development is a modelling application which takes organisational data from payroll and HR records. The application will show the organisation's structure visually and with accompanying summary information, allowing different scenarios to be set out and different versions saved for comparison.

It is hoped that this will become a central platform which iESE will add Apps onto. The first planned App is the Cultural Compass tool. This will take behavioural framework data and, by allocating this information to each employee record, will allow an organisation to roll the data up to see measures for each team, section, directorate, service line and for the overall authority.

iESE is also currently working on a Digital White Paper, which aims to give leaders a set of questions they can ask their authority to see where they have got to and what they might do to get themselves into a position to maximise the benefits of the digital revolution. We would like to hear from potential candidates with practical digital experience in the public sector as we look to grow our associate base in the digital arena.
