Effective leadership is a complex and highly valued component of healthcare education, increasingly recognised as essential to the delivery of high standards of education, research and clinical practice. To meet the needs of healthcare in the twenty-first century, competent leaders will be increasingly important across all health professions, including allied health, nursing, pharmacy, dentistry, and medicine. Consequently, incorporation of leadership training and development should be part of all health professional curricula. A new type of leader is emerging: one who role models the balance between autonomy and accountability, emphasises teamwork, and focuses on improving patient outcomes. Healthcare education leaders are required to work effectively and collaboratively across discipline and organisational boundaries, where titles are not always linked to leadership roles. This paper briefly considers the current theories of leadership, and explores leadership skills and roles within the context of healthcare education.
有效的领导力是医疗保健教育中一个复杂且备受重视的组成部分,它越来越被认为是提供高标准教育、研究和临床实践的必要条件。为了满足 21 世纪医疗保健的需求,在所有医疗保健专业领域,包括辅助医疗、护理、药学、牙科和医学,具备领导能力的人才将变得越来越重要。因此,领导力培训和发展应该成为所有医疗保健专业课程的一部分。一种新型的领导者正在出现:他们是在自主性和责任制之间取得平衡的榜样,强调团队合作,并专注于改善患者的治疗效果。医疗保健教育领导者需要在跨学科和组织界限内有效地合作,因为在这些领域,头衔并不总是与领导角色相关联。本文简要探讨了当前的领导力理论,并在医疗保健教育的背景下探讨了领导力技能和角色。
