2025 Leaders
A scheme for high potential directors with the first cohort commencing in April 2016. The aim of the programme is to identify and develop the next generation of Chief Executives and Director Generals to lead the health and care system at a national level through the ALBs / DH and 19 staff from DH and its ALBs began their programme.
Just as today’s senior leaders are charged with the creation and implementation of the Five Year Forward View, the Chief Executives and DGs of 2020 will be charged with the creation and implementation of the roadmap to 2025 in the context of an increasingly complex set of demands and dynamics.
By 2020, we may have resolved some of the structural and financial issues that face us today, but new issues will no doubt have emerged from the changing demographics and political pressures already on the horizon.
The 2025 Leaders Programme is designed to equip participants with the leadership capacities and capabilities to meet this challenge.
