Abstract:

The knowledge and skills required of todayâ??s healthcare professionals far exceed expertise in traditional competency areas. The proper management of complex health conditions demands coordination of care by various health professionals. A multidisciplinary healthcare team supports the concept of leadership and teamwork as an essential component for success. Thereâ??s increasing evidence showing that clinical leadership is associated with high-performing healthcare organisations. Historically, these concepts have received relatively little attention in undergraduate curricula. In this presentation, the need of developing leadership courses, and to bring healthcare team members at one platform at an early stage will be explored. In addition, ways through which leadership and management theories, concepts and approaches can be utilised to develop such programs will be addressed. There are some key areas to focus upon, such as: 1) Leadership theory and practice, 2) Emotional Intelligence, 3) Setting Personal goals, 4) Setting vision and strategic direction, 5) Adaptive leadership, and 6) Understanding individual and organisational responses to change.
