Clinical leadership - Emma Stanton

This book aims to encourage and to inspire as well as to inform. It is not a textbook or an academic examination of clinical leadership. Rather, our intention is that the personal narratives of the emerging clinical leaders collected here provide support (maybe even inspiration) to others whose aim is to build an NHS which better unites clinicians skills and knowledge to those of general managers and others to create a system that delivers high-quality care to patients every time with minimal waste.
Clinicians, and therefore clinical leaders, are uniquely well placed to lead on many of these issues, because of their experience, knowledge and position.

This book is unique in that it is written by junior doctors who are all passionate to develop as leaders, in combination with senior leaders who have extensive experience of leadership.
It is hoped that by sharing the narrative of a group of junior doctors who are participating in and who appreciate the value of clinical leadership, this book will spark a sense of possibility in the reader.
