Reflective Questions for Health Leaders
As you think about your own leadership journey and the themes explored in this blog, consider the following questions to help you reflect and take actionable steps:
- How do you currently approach lifelong learning in your role?
Are you intentional about the sources of information and networks that influence your thinking and leadership decisions? - How effectively do you listen to your team, patients, or peers?
What strategies could you adopt to improve deep, active listening and create more opportunities for others to feel heard? - How are you balancing the demands of doing your job with improving your job?
Are you dedicating time and resources to develop both your own performance and the systems around you? - What steps are you taking to promote shared decision-making in your organisation?
How can you better empower patients and staff to co-create solutions that align with their values and needs? - How can you apply lessons from other sectors to enhance leadership and innovation in healthcare?
Are there specific practices, such as future-focused performance planning or team-building strategies, that could benefit your leadership approach?
Reflecting on these questions regularly can help you stay grounded in your purpose while continually evolving as a leader.
