Radcliffe Publishing, Oxford and New York, have just published the second edition of Professor Stephen Prosser’s book Effective People: Leadership and Organisation Development in Healthcare.
Professor Stephen Prosser is Professor of Leadership and Organisation Development, Department of Management, University of Glamorgan, and former founding Chief Executive, NHS Staff College, Wales
The book analyses the attitudes and disciplines which make people and the organisations for which they work more effective, more productive and generally more successful; and contains a mixture of the best in leadership and organisation development practice, theory and policy, applicable in a wide variety of healthcare situations.
Now revised, including an entirely new chapter on being patient-focused, the book is seen as an invaluable resource for health service leaders and future leaders including managers, clinicians, policy makers and academics.
The International Leadership Journal, Clinician in Management, commented “Very practical, full of common sense and interspersed with some interesting anecdotes and analogies. The author has a healthy disregard for many management practices, which does encourage the reader to think outside the box. Eminently readable.”
The Journal of Finance and Management in Public Services reviewed the book as “Impressive, wide-ranging and entertaining. A well-researched and readable volume.”
