Themes such as organizational culture, cultural competency, ethical frameworks and moral practice, scientific methodology, and leader competencies are woven through the entire text.The authors’ perspective focuses on the most pertinent leadership content, theories, models, principles, and strategies that produce results in the health industry. The authors-now with the updated fourth edition and new coauthors who bring physician practice, nursing practice, and executive health insurance practice into the text-have put many of these theories and models into practice during the course of successful practitioner careers.
