| Περίληψη: | Background: The significance of effective medical leadership in enhancing healthcare outcomes has been widely acknowledged. This study evaluates the Emerging Leaders Programme, a multidisciplinary leadership development initiative for healthcare professionals at a UK Hospital Trust. Methods: The evaluation spanned three cohorts (2017-2019) and a total of 54 participants, employing mixed methods to assess participant reactions, learning, behaviour changes and organisational impact. Quantitative pre-/post-measures included the Primary Colours Questionnaire (PCQ), Medical Leadership Competency Framework Questionnaire (MLCFQ) and Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), while qualitative data were gathered via free-text comments and long-term follow-up interviews. Results: The programme had high satisfaction ratings, with particularly positive feedback relating to the multidisciplinary cohort and experiential learning via Quality Improvement projects. Findings indicated improvements in participants' leadership skills, knowledge, confidence and job satisfaction. Organisational outcomes included increased organisational interest in quality improvement and individual career progression. Conclusion: The results highlight the value of a structured leadership programme in developing healthcare leaders and driving organisational improvements, with long-term effects. Recommendations for future programmes include multidisciplinary involvement, experiential learning, inspiring speakers and embedded mixed-methods evaluation. (© Author(s) (or their employer(s)) 2026.
