Great leadership at all levels in the NHS is required to achieve our ambition of delivering world class standards in health and health services to patients and communities.
We provide a range of interventions to help build leadership capability and capacity across the NHS:
- Our Board Level Development Team provides a range of capability programmes for whole boards and individual senior leaders, as well as strengthening the provision of coaching for senior leaders. There is also a focus on building commissioning capabilities
- The Enhancing Engagement in Medical Leadership Project develops and promotes medical leadership and engagement across the UK in conjunction with the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges;
- Building Leadership Capacity recruits fresh new talent and develops high calibre individuals into innovative, accomplished leaders through a portfolio of three programmes, each of which uniquely contributes to the NHS talent pool:
- NHS Graduate Scheme continues to recruit high calibre graduates onto the award winning scheme;
- Gateway to Leadership attracts fresh talent into the NHS from other sectors by recruiting on its programme;
- Breaking Through Programme recruits NHS managers from black and minority ethnic backgrounds.
