The LEADS Booklet

The LEADS booklet is a compilation of five sections that address each domain of LEADS and the four capabilities within each domain. Each section has been written by an expert in the specific field that each domain represents. The booklet documents a summary of the research that has been done since 2006 on the LEADS in a Caring Environment capabilities framework. This includes a comprehensive investigation of national and international competency frameworks in health leadership and management, the broad leadership literature, the literature specific to leadership in health, all triangulated through input from emerging, and senior leaders in healthcare across Canada.

Each section outlines the salient research underpinning:

The overall LEADS change model.
Each LEADS domain and the four capabilities within each domain.
The contribution each of the LEADS domains makes to the change model.

Collectively, the sections in the LEADS booklet are a powerful set of resources that a leader can utilize to:

Begin to develop a plan to lead a change in health systems.
Identify examples from across Canada that might be used as exemplars for the LEADS capabilities.
Find additional resources (e.g., booklet bibliographies).
Provide valuable curriculum and course materials.
