The HEE Star is a simple, coherent framework to facilitate and guide workforce conversations. It equips provider systems, ICB’s and People Boards with a single framework to define key workforce requirements, determine responsive solutions and deliver the best care to service users. It also hosts a single ‘go to’ directory for  providers and systems to access  and explore a range of workforce  transformation solutions.

Benefits of using the STAR approach

• Structured framework – creates clarity & focus​
• Complex workforce problem – simplified​
• Time to consider the future of work and thinking beyond traditional boundaries​
• Opportunity to reflect and discuss the workforce challenge with experts or experienced colleagues and service users
