Collective Leadership Everyone takes responsibility Positive, supportive environments for staff CREATE Caring, supportive environments for patients Staff are likely to intervene to solve problems Performance does not rest simply on the number or quality of individual leaders. Everyone taking responsibility for the success of the organisation as a whole – not just for their own jobs or area. Leaders and managers create positive, supportive environments for staff, those staff then create caring, supportive environments for patients Staff are likely to intervene to solve problems, to ensure quality of care and to promote responsible, safe innovation. Organisational performance does not rest simply on the number or quality of individual leaders. Research shows that where relationships between leaders are well developed, organisations will benefit from direction, alignment and commitment. Vision and mission statements must be translated into clear, aligned, agreed and challenging objectives at all levels of the organisation, from the board to frontline teams and individuals.

“The NHS needs people to think of themselves as leaders, not because they are personally exceptional, senior, or inspirational to others, but because they can see what needs doing and can work with others to do it” Kim Turnbull James, Leadership in Context, Kings Fund 2011
