Get Started
In the earliest days of the NHS, the task for managers was administration rather than leadership. Organisations were smaller and less complex. Today management reflects the wider developments in management and leadership , with the increasing specialisation of tasks.
Disciplines including human resources; procurement; IT and estates management have evolved, and with that the need for specialist managers in addition to managers with general administrative skills.
Clinical specialties and sub-specialties have also developed, again requiring leaders who have specific expertise in addition to generic skills.
