NHS R&D North West - Explore how to lead a culture of research and innovation
Are you a service or ward manager? Would you like to increase your team’s engagement and interest in research? Would you like to change the culture in your team?
NHS R&D NW invites NHS middle managers (bands 7 upwards) who are leading clinical teams to take part in this innovative and unique programme to explore how to lead an effective culture of research and innovation by building leadership capacity and developing the skills and confidence to create an effective culture within their units, wards / departments.
Funded by the North West Leadership Academy, the focus of the training specifically explores research and innovation culture because we know that NHS organisations who are more research active have better patient outcomes. The course design is informed by the domains of the Healthcare Leadership Model and by the evaluation of the NHS R&D NW Academy of Creative Minds which was developed for the dissemination of health research but showed participation led to significant increase in individual levels of confidence, creativity and self-belief, skills essential to good leadership.
The course consists of an initial two day residential and two one day workshops in January and March 2018.
The closing date for applications is 31st December 2017.
The application pack is available to download and further details of the programme can be accessed via the R&D North West website. Alternatively contact
