June 28 Are we delivering the right thing?
This document presents a reflective post from a UK Civil Service delivery manager working in a Digital, Data, and Technology (DDaT) role. The author observes a persistent pressure to "do more with less" and "deliver faster," which often leads to immediate implementation without adequate time to critically assess if the correct problems are being addressed or if policy intentions are fully understood. How can civil service teams ensure they are solving the right problems, not just delivering quickly?

What do others say about their Clarity Lab experience?
I was stuck in an endless loop, questioning past decisions and second-guessing my moves. It was completely paralysing – both in making new choices and in feeling confident about my life’s direction. The Checkpoint session at Clarity Lab helped me get off that track. In just one conversation, I went from ruminating on the past to seeing the potential for change. I did come away with clarity, a lot of relief, and the ability to pivot towards what really matters to me. If you feel stuck, don’t hesitate – this process works.
