Effective leadership is a vital component of healthcare and is recognized as crucial for delivering high quality research and clinical practices. In response to the demands of modern healthcare, the need for capable leaders is increasing across all health professions. A new type of leader is emerging: someone who embodies a combination of independence, responsibility, values teamwork, and strives to improve patient outcomes. Healthcare leaders must be able to work efficiently and collaboratively across different disciplines and organizational boundaries, even if they do not hold formal leadership titles.
