Bringing Leadership to Life in Health: LEADS in a Caring Environment: A New Perspective de Graham Dickson

Bringing Leadership to Life in Health: LEADS in a Caring Environment: A New Perspective

Autor Graham Dickson, Bill Tholl
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 aug 2016
Globally, the health sector faces significant demands for reform and improvement to meet the needs of the 21st Century. To achieve that goal, highly sophisticated and capable leaders are required across all dimensions of the health system. This book describes the key challenges that demand reform, why better leadership is the source code for better system performance, and the issues that stand in the way of getting that leadership. It includes substantive treatment of the modern democratic challenges that healthcare leaders face; and the essence of what it means to be a leader in today’s world. The essence of leadership itself is described, and the case made for the need for people to use the workplace as the place to develop leadership rather than relying solely on formal programs. It will also outline a self-directed learning process that any individual leader—citizen, clinician, or senior executive—can use to develop their own leadership capability, and thus become more active as a leader of change. This book addresses the need for leaders to think on a system-wide scale. A second part of the book focuses primarily on the Canadian Health system and LEADS in a Caring Environment capabilities framework, and the link between LEADS and frameworks in Australia and the UK. LEADS was developed through a partnership between members of the Healthcare Leaders Association of British Columbia and the Canadian College of Health Leaders, the Canadian Health Leadership Network and Royal Roads University. Currently it is stewarded by a not-for-profit collaboration that has endorsed LEADS as an evidence-informed set of national expectations for Canadian health leaders. LEADS has been endorsed by many health organizations in almost all provinces in Canada as a foundation for their talent management programs in leadership (development and succession planning). The book will address the research foundations for the LEADS framework; how it was developed; theframework’s contents; its congruence with other national frameworks, and how LEADS can be used as a model to envisage and plan change.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
“The purpose is to acquaint leaders with the concept and practical usage of LEADS. This is a worthwhile objective, and the book met the author’s objectives. The book is written for anyone interested in leading and developing a caring healthcare environment … . I liked the exercises and I think that it will be a very worthy addition to leadership texts. I have not seen anything else like it. Nicely done!” (Cynthia Lee Cummings, Doody’s Book Reviews, April, 2014)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Like other international jurisdictions, the Canadian health sector faces significant demands for change and improvement to meet the needs of the 21st Century.  To achieve that goal, highly sophisticated and capable leaders are required across all dimensions of the health system. Bringing Leadership to Life in Health: LEADS in a Caring Environment examines the essence of leadership itself and what it means to be a leader in today’s world. The authors describe key challenges that demand reform in the health sector, examine why better leadership is the source code for better system performance, and look at the issues that stand in the way of getting that leadership.
 
This book describes the five domains of the Caring Environment capabilities framework: Lead Self, Engage Others, Achieve Results, Develop Coalitions, and Systems Transformation. Bringing Leadership to Life in Health: LEADS in a Caring Environment is a simple, easily accessible, and research informed book which will explain the LEADS in a Caring Environment capabilities framework that has been adopted across Canada as the foundation for health leadership talent management. This book will illustrate this framework through supportive research,  relevant stories solicited from health leaders at all levels as well as the inclusion of ‘learning moments’ to help the readers reflect on their own experiences.
