Yorkshire and Humber GP curriculum group Leadership skills

Welcome! This powerpoint is long and has a lot of information, so please don’t try to read it in one sitting There are a number of models and frameworks that we use to explain the concepts. Please don’t get hung up on these; they don’t need to be learned and their purpose is just to help you understand the bigger picture. For each of the slides, you will find the explanatory text in the notes section, so don’t view this resource just as a slide show, because the notes are important There are lots of ideas here that will help to develop your insight. You could read it on your own, but this can be heavy going and it works best if you discuss the material with your colleagues in a group where you can translate the theory given here into practical examples of how it can be applied. We hope that you enjoy the resource and would welcome your feedback!
