DESCRIPTION

The Clinical Leadership Fellowships aim to support the transformation of leadership in the NHS by offering clinical professionals the opportunity to develop leadership skills through a structured learning and experiential programme.This two-day event saw 59 of our 2011 graduating Fellows share reflections and successes of their hard work over the past year. We heard some truly remarkable examples of how the programme enabled clinical professionals to improve and even transform services for patients. We also welcomed 80 new Fellows for the 2012 intake. Joining in the welcome celebrations were Jan Sobieraj, Managing Director of the NHS Leadership Academy, Sir David Nicholson, NHS Chief Executive and Chief Executive of the NHS Commissioning Board Authority, and Anna Soubry MP, new health minister.
