Co-Creating a Vision for the Future of Healthcare Leadership: An Organizational Case Study

Healthc Q. 2024 Oct;27(3):41-48. doi: 10.12927/hcq.2024.27488.

Abstract

This qualitative case study explores the perspectives of approximately 270 leaders at all levels within Canada's largest community hospital to identify the qualities of effective leaders and their aspirations for the future of healthcare leadership. Responses to a structured visioning exercise with three open-ended prompts were anonymously collected, sorted using ChatGPT and thematically analyzed. Connection, integrity and impact were identified as central to effective leadership. These results align with and expand on existing leadership competency frameworks and inform the culture that is essential to building the healthcare leader workforce of tomorrow.
