Abstract

Competent leadership is essential for improving healthcare outcomes and quality of care. Global leaders need to possess knowledge, skills, and competencies to develop and modify systems of care and drive continuous change and improvement. In this chapter, we examine leadership qualities, traits, and characteristics, along with issues of responsibility and professional identity. We also discuss contemporary leadership issues, while allowing for country-specific and regional variation. Applied examples of leadership concepts help underscore the importance of managing resources wisely, ensuring sustainable projects, and meeting the needs of vulnerable populations. Discussion questions, vignettes, and exercises further enable application and integration of key concepts and ideas.
