Management and Leadership in Healthcare: Expectations, Conditions, Skills, and Reflections Across a Leadership Development Program

25. června 2026 aktualizováno: Kristina Lagerstedt, Kronoberg County Council

First- and Second-Line Healthcare Managers' Expectations, Skills, and Conditions for Practicing Management and Leadership Before, During, and After Participation in a Leadership Development Program, and Their Reflections on the Program

This study follows first- and second-line healthcare managers who take part in an established leadership development program in a Swedish healthcare region. The study examines managers' expectations of the program and how they describe their skills and conditions for practicing management and leadership before, during, and after participation. It also explores their reflections on the program, including learning, new insights, application in everyday management practice, and conditions for taking part.

Participants complete questionnaires before the program, immediately after it ends, and one year later. During the program, they record reflections in structured diaries. After the program, participants are invited to focus group interviews to discuss their experiences in greater depth. The questionnaire, diary, and interview findings will be combined to provide a broader understanding of managers' development and experiences of the program.

Detailní popis

The aim of this study is to describe and compare first- and second-line managers' expectations, skills, and conditions for practicing management and leadership before, during, and after participation in a leadership development program, as well as their reflections on the program.

Approximately 50 first- and second-line healthcare managers participating in a leadership development program will be followed from autumn 2026. Data will be collected through questionnaires, diary entries, and focus group interviews.

A web-based questionnaire will be administered before the program, immediately after completion, and one year after completion. The questionnaire will collect demographic information and data on the managers' self-rated management and leadership using the Leadership and Management Inventory, LaMI-II, and on thriving, understood as flourishing and developing positively, using the Thriving Scale. Study-specific questions will also address whether participants have considered leaving or have left their current management position.

During the leadership development program, participants will be asked to use diaries to describe their expectations of the program and to reflect on learning, insights, application, conditions for participating in the program, and conditions for practicing management and leadership.

After completion of the leadership development program, focus group interviews will be conducted with 5-7 participants in each group. The interviews will be based on the participants' collective descriptions in the diary entries.

Questionnaire data will be compared longitudinally using statistical tests appropriate to the level and distribution of the data. Diary entries and focus group interviews will be analyzed using qualitative content analysis. The quantitative and qualitative results will then be integrated to provide a deeper understanding of the managers' development, experiences, and conditions before, during, and after participation in the leadership development program.

Časové okno
Self-rated management and leadership performance
Časové okno: Before the leadership development program, immediately after program completion, and 12 months after program completion

Self-rated management and leadership performance will be assessed using the Leadership and Management Inventory-II (LaMI-II). The instrument consists of 25 items divided into two factors: management and leadership. Each item is rated on a five-point scale ranging from 1 (not at all) to 5 (to a very large extent).

Scores will be calculated for the management factor, the leadership factor, and the total scale. Raw scores will be transformed to values ranging from 20 to 100 by dividing the sum of the item scores by the highest possible score and multiplying by 100. Higher scores indicate more desirable self-rated management and leadership performance.

Changes in management, leadership, and total scores will be examined over time. Scores may also be compared within the study group according to demographic and work-related characteristics and whether participants have considered leaving or have left their current management position.
Before the leadership development program, immediately after program completion, and 12 months after program completion
Thriving at work
Časové okno: Before the leadership development program, immediately after program completion, and 12 months after program completion.

Thriving at work will be assessed using the 10-item Thriving Scale. The scale consists of two factors: learning and vitality, with five items representing each factor. Each item is rated on a seven-point scale ranging from 1 (totally disagree) to 7 (totally agree).

Mean scores will be calculated for the learning factor, the vitality factor, and the total scale. Higher scores indicate a higher degree of thriving at work, understood as the joint experience of learning and vitality.

Changes in learning, vitality, and total thriving scores will be examined over time. Scores may also be compared within the study group according to demographic and work-related characteristics and whether participants have considered leaving or have left their current management position.
Before the leadership development program, immediately after program completion, and 12 months after program completion.
Healthcare Managers' Reflections on the Leadership Development Program
Časové okno: From the beginning of the leadership development program until completion of the focus group interviews, approximately September 2026 to September 2027

Participants' reflections on the leadership development program will be explored through structured diary entries completed during the program and through focus group interviews conducted after program completion.

The diary entries will address participants' expectations of the program and their reflections on learning, insights, application of program content, conditions for participating in the program, and conditions for practicing management and leadership. The focus group interviews will explore these areas in greater depth and will be informed by the participants' collective diary reflections.

Diary entries and transcribed focus group interviews will be analyzed using qualitative content analysis. The outcome will consist of categories describing participants' expectations, experiences, learning, application, and perceived conditions related to the leadership development program and their management and leadership practice.

Popis plánu IPD

Individual participant data will not be shared outside the research group because the study involves a small and well-defined group of healthcare managers within one organization. The dataset includes longitudinal questionnaire responses, diary entries, and focus group interview data. Even after removal of direct identifiers, combining information across data sources and time points could create a risk of indirect identification. Data will therefore be handled in accordance with the approved ethical application and applicable data protection requirements. Aggregated and anonymized study results will be reported in publications.
