To evaluate the exposure to crisis leadership theory already present in Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) accredited Master of Public Health (MPH) programs in the United States and provide a compelling case for its future inclusion.
This was a narrative review.
We compiled a comprehensive list of 179 CEPH schools that offered an MPH program. During January through March 2021, we examined 179 websites for the core courses and elective courses offered in the MPH degree program to determine if any courses covered the topics of leadership, crisis leadership, or crisis management in either the course title or description.
Leadership courses were available in only 55.31% of CEPH-accredited schools. Only a single program (0.56%) offers a crisis leadership course.
The current global COVID-19 pandemic and reality of climate-induced disasters have brought crises to the forefront for health systems. Successful leadership for the future requires public health leaders to have training in crisis leadership. The evaluation and revision of public health curricula must focus on leadership competency development to prepare graduates to lead complex multiple crisis events and system shocks simultaneously.
评估美国已通过教育促进公共卫生理事会 (CEPH) 认证的公共卫生硕士 (MPH) 课程中危机领导力理论的现有情况,并为其未来纳入提供有力依据。
这是一项叙述性回顾。
我们编制了一份包含 179 所提供 MPH 课程的 CEPH 学校的综合清单。在 2021 年 1 月至 3 月期间,我们检查了 179 个网站上的 MPH 学位课程的核心课程和选修课程,以确定是否有任何课程在课程标题或描述中涵盖领导力、危机领导力或危机管理等主题。
CEPH 认证学校中仅 55.31% 提供领导力课程。只有一个项目(0.56%)提供危机领导力课程。
当前全球 COVID-19 大流行和气候引发的灾害现实使危机成为卫生系统的首要问题。未来成功的领导力需要公共卫生领导者接受危机领导力培训。公共卫生课程的评估和修订必须侧重于领导力能力培养,以使毕业生能够同时领导复杂的多重危机事件和系统冲击。
