The Practical Leadership Approach
Why haven’t we got leadership in health and aged care right yet?
Surely it’s a simple combination of managing the individual, the contextual, and the collective?
The holistic care required as today’s hallmark of contemporary health, aged and community care requires more – it requires emotional intelligence, real world experience, and people bringing their whole selves to work.
We hear constantly from executives that they need leaders who know the business, who can address the business, who know themselves and who know how to manage themselves.
They want leaders who can inspire and paint a clear and compelling future for their teams. They can instruct and support their teams to get involved and deliver great care.
So this is what you'll find in our 7-step Practical Leadership framework: Inspiration, Instruction and Involvement.
Practical Leadership helps people grow as leaders wherever they are.
Practical Leadership is strengths-based and combines emotional intelligence with real world tools and guidance for everyday use - a unique combination of personal, professional and organisational to support the delivery of a great client experience.
