💬 How to Bring Your Team’s Voice Into Your Tender Responses
Too many tender responses sound distant and corporate. Commissioners are looking for services that demonstrate strong, connected leadership and engagement with the people who deliver care every day.
Bringing your team’s voice into your bid shows authenticity, lived experience, and a grounded understanding of what works. Here’s how:
✅ Practical Ways to Capture Team Insights
- Regular supervision discussions — capture good practice and learning
- Team meetings — share examples of service improvement driven by staff
- Reflective practice sessions — show how learning shapes your delivery
- Staff surveys — demonstrate how feedback informs decisions
Use these insights to strengthen tender answers on:
- Workforce wellbeing and retention
- Quality improvement
- Person-centred care
- Governance and leadership
💡 Why It Matters
- ✔️ Shows commissioners you listen and adapt
- ✔️ Brings real-life credibility to your answers
- ✔️ Demonstrates connection between leadership, staff, and outcomes
- ✔️ Reinforces organisational culture and values
Commissioners want assurance that your leadership is engaged, informed, and proactive — not detached or reactive.
