Key themes the podcast will explore:
• Transferrable skills from the military into the NHS: what can we learn from the military in developing our own NHS leaders?
• Leading in challenging environments: How do we flex as leaders to deal with the key challenges in the NHS, such as tighter budgets, shifting employee expectations and the need for greater productivity.
• Thriving as leaders: How can we best prepare our leaders to thrive in the NHS, the importance of development and continuous learning, and retaining our top talent
