Many interesting insights from the SIG topic on Leadership for Integrated Care hosted by JP Harnett. @baker_ross speaking on the opportunities to gain insights on what is required for Leadership for Integrated Care. What works for people, what are their challenges and obstacles. This research can ideally happen in parallel to creating integrated services-lets learn as we do. Strong messages around the need to properly invest in Leadership for integration through communities of practice, mentoring/coaching and skills development. Key message: there are new competences required for Leadership in Healthcare and we need to resource this sooner rather than later. #ICIC24 @IFICInfo
