Testimonials

“I think it helps you to think two steps higher. To think about what are the challenges at Director level and what will the board see. It gives you the insight you need to move up and helps you to understand the challenges they see.”

HSMC has led an evaluation of two national leadership development programmes – the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson and Nye Bevan Programmes.  This was carried out with the NHS Leadership Academy and was based on a survey that was administered jointly with a separate evaluation carried out by Frontlines Consultants.  The focus of the evaluation was on participants’ experiences of the leadership programmes and the extent to which these have  influenced their practice and improved their effectiveness as leader. Read the full report.
