This book exemplifies and justifies the importance of leadership in IPE. It addresses a gap in IPE literature, is urgently needed and its publication is opportune. The use of narrative effectively embeds the text in practice. It can be used both as a practical resource and through the skilful use of questions, can be tailor-made for the circumstances of the reader. The authors demonstrate the importance within the IPE field of not being parochial and learning from the experience of those in other countries. It shows that mature IPE nations can equally learn from the experiences of emerging IPE nations. This book focuses on an important area with a new emphasis. It has helped us to move forward and adds effectively to the evolving IPE literature. Richard Gray Chair of Centre for the Advancement of Interprofessional Education – CAIPE, UK This book demonstrates both passionately and clearly the extent to which interprofessional collaboration in the health professions is evolving new leadership practice and knowledge. Challenging questions – and evolving solutions – concerning impact are ever-present in a lively, diverse collection of chapters which will inspire and motivate practitioners around the world. Dr Paul Gentle Director of Programmes Leadership Foundation for Higher Education UK I have experienced firsthand the difference strong leadership can make in the development and sustainability of an interprofessional culture both in a university and practice setting. This book shows how important interprofessional education and practice is internationally and how vital it is that leaders develop the collaborative health and social care models which are needed for the future. Geoff Glover Higher Education Academy UK If ever there was a time when professionals needed to learn with, from, and about each other to improve collaboration and the quality of patient care, it is now. This book is therefore a timely and stimulating resource for all those serious about improving the quality of care. Combining experiences from across the globe and drawing on important theories and models, it provides insights and offers solutions in the realms of leadership, change management, and interprofessional education. With the inclusion of case studies and probing questions it encourages self-reflection as well as providing practical strategies for achieving transformational change. In a world of increasing complexity and rising demands on health and social care, this book is a great resource for leaders, managers, educators, and healthcare professionals.
