After nearly 2 years of delivering training to over 5,000 people and hundreds of organisations in how to design services that work, Good Services is officially becoming a school, and with it, we’re changing our name to The School of Good Services.Despite swathes of government (local and central) and the NHS delivering effective user centred services, it begs the question, how do we ensure that all public services across the UK are designed and built to better meet the needs of our users? This is not a new question but the reality still shows, from experience, that there remains significant differences in the understanding and appreciation of what a good service looks like and how you deliver them, or dare I say, whether this is important. All of these courses can be booked privately for your team or organisation, or If you’re an individual or a small team, we’ve just released all the new course public dates which you can book for later this year.

Physiocratic economists categorized production into productive labour and unproductive labour. Adam Smith expanded this thought by arguing that any economic activities directly related to material products (goods) were productive, and those activities which involved non-material production (services) were unproductive. This emphasis on material production was adapted by David Ricardo, Thomas Robert Malthus and John Stuart Mill, and influenced later Marxian economics. Other, mainly Italian, 18th-century economists maintained that all desired goods and services were productive.
