What is leadership development and why is it important to rural health and rural communities?
The basis for leadership development is the understanding that leadership comes from “nurture” as much as “nature.” Leadership is the capacity that can be learned, to help transform into reality a vision of the future. As important as good management is to an organization, leadership is typically understood as requiring something different—the ability to drive change. An organization or community without leadership working towards a vision for a better future will not succeed.
