LEADS: A Framework that Works
In today’s fast-paced, highly competitive healthcare environment, health leaders need to provide inspirational and transformational leadership by role modeling the values, principles, and behaviors that shape the culture of a healthy organization:Where staff has their psychological health recognized and catered for. Where staff, in turn, provides leadership by promoting the well-being of others.
And this is why the LEADS framework provides incredible outcomes. LEADS uses an International Comparative Process to help you reflect on your leadership behaviors and identify which ones are culturally appropriate in your jurisdiction.

The Hero’s Journey is a powerful tool for managing organizational conflicts. Complex organizations like hospitals are crammed with daily conflicts. As a healthcare team leader you have to lead every conflict to achieve a step forward. In my opinion, mastering LEADS, principles is invaluable tool for every healthcare leader.
