Participants share their views and help define courageous leadership in the context of health and social care.

During the Scottish Government Fire Starter Festival (this link will take you away from our website), the Health and Social Care Academy in partnership with Mind and Draw delivered a creative workshop to explore courageous leadership as part of the 2021 Fire starter Festival (FSF).

The workshop was an opportunity to explore what a courageous leader looks like and how participants would like leaders to act in the face of challenge within the context of health and social care. The session involved discussing the following questions:

• What values would you like these courageous leaders to have?
• How would you like these courageous leaders to act in the face of challenge?
• What supports enable courageous leadership?

Throughout the discussions it was clear that people need to be at the centre of any discourse relating to leadership and decision making. Participants discussed qualities and values related to courageous leadership both from an individual and collective perspective. You can find out more by reading the event report.
