Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leadership in Healthcare opens up the world of leadership studies to all healthcare professionals. Physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals spend thousands of hours studying the science and technology of healthcare, and years or even decades putting into practice recent findings in molecular biology, clinical diagnostics, and therapeutics. By contrast, the topic of leadership and the traits of effective leaders tend to receive remarkably little attention. Yet no less vital than an understanding of how to interpret diagnostic tests and design care plans is a grasp of healthcare's organizational side, including the operation of multidisciplinary care teams, academic departments, and hospitals. If patient care, education, research, and professional service are to thrive in years to come, we must do a better job of preparing healthcare professionals to lead effectively. Composed of insightful and thought-provoking essays on the key facets of leadership, this book is designed to meet the needs of several important constituencies, including educators of health professionals who wish to incorporate leadership into their educational programs; health professional organizations seeking to enhance their members' leadership effectiveness, and individual health professionals who wish to embrace leadership in their personal and professional lives. This book represents a vital resource for health professionals who wish to enhance the quality of leadership in health professions education, practice, and professional development. In addition to regularly caring for patients, Richard Gunderman, MD PhD MPH brings to this discussion a wealth of personal experience in professional and organizational leadership.

Download or read book Medical Leadership written by Peter Spurgeon and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Successful medical leaders are usually, but not always, experienced and credible clinicians with good people skills, who look beyond the boundaries of their own specialty or institution, who are positive and perseverant and who are prepared to take reasonable risks to achieve their goals. Most importantly they know how to engage their colleagues and effect change. They understand the principles of organisational performance and the balance between professional autonomy and corporate behaviour - ' Sir Bruce Keogh, in the Foreword This book is a comprehensive account of the key aspects of medical leadership. Easy to read and highly accessible, it explores how the medical profession has evolved in tandem with administrative and structural aspects of the NHS: previously reluctant leaders, doctors are increasingly positive about adopting management and organisational responsibility. Assuming leadership roles at all stages of their training and career is a progressively vital component of the definition of a 'good doctor'. Completely up-to-date, this book features exciting and critical developments such as the embedding of the Medical Leadership Competency Framework as a statutory element of the training and development of all doctors, and the establishment of a new Faculty of Medical Leadership and Management. It is highly recommended, inspiring reading for all medical professionals taking on formal leadership roles. Junior doctors, too, will find much of interest.

Book Fundamentals of Leadership for Healthcare Professionals

Download or read book Fundamentals of Leadership for Healthcare Professionals written by Stanisław Stawicki and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are few contemporary industries that are as complex and challenging to navigate as healthcare. The realities of constantly changing regulatory, financial, and legal environments, combined with increasing societal expectations for excellence and safe and quality care, have resulted in a unique combination of constraints and opportunities that require the best and the brightest of managers and leaders to successfully tackle. Yet despite a growing cadre of highly trained healthcare management professionals, there continues to be a paucity of high quality leaders across the industry. Moreover, even among those individuals, there is a significant amount of variability and heterogeneity of leadership styles and approaches. In an era of accountability to multiple stakeholders from patients, to insurance companies, to local and national governments the complex environment of healthcare requires visionary leadership, flexibility, adaptability, short-term tactical approaches, as well as long-term strategic thinking. Beyond the traditionally defined scope of services, the mission of institutions providing healthcare services has become much broader and far-reaching than just the provision of medical services within a specific geographic area. With hospitals and health networks progressively growing to become some of the largest aggregators of employment in the United States, it is not uncommon for healthcare institutions to function as guarantors of economic stability to entire towns, cities, and regions. Yet this must be carefully balanced with the challenges of maintaining sustainable growth and acceptable profit margins that help ensure that this safety matrix continues to function as intended. To be an effective leader in the modern healthcare environment, one must possess more than the knowledge and skills similar to other corporate environments such as having a fundamental understanding of relevant business models and their implementations, a high degree of emotional intelligence, conflict resolution, and a well-established repertoire of leadership behaviors expected of an executive. It takes someone truly special to translate the presence of diverse threats and opportunities often in a climate rich with multiple types of diversely structured and organized competitors, multi-layered complex agendas that incorporate both personal and organizational goals, and an institutional history and culture that can be difficult to navigate, let alone change. Contemporary healthcare leaders must also possess a broad understanding of the nuances and intricacies involved in working with a multitude of care providers, inter-disciplinary teams, complex delivery platforms, and diverse patient populations. These efforts must translate into well-run healthcare systems that, although difficult to clearly and concisely define, are able to deliver excellent patient care, at the highest possible intersection of customer quality and value. For some other healthcare institutions, teaching and research missions can also be variables that must be considered and managed effectively in order for a hospital or healthcare system to be successful. Many of such organizations are the primary generators and providers of new provider talent to their communities and patients. Achieving all of the above goals is far from easy. As the editors of Fundamentals of Leadership for Healthcare Professionals, we were motivated by personal experiences, passion for the arts and sciences leadership roles, and the overarching goal to improve one of our most precious resources the healthcare system. Each chapter in this text explores different aspects of healthcare leadership, provides valuable insights into how effective leadership functions, and offers practical perspectives on implementations of theory into practice. We hope that the reader will gain a better understanding of the full spectrum of challenges and opportunities that face healthcare leaders at all organizational levels.
