Designed to support current standards and goals for health care, Leadership in Public and Community Health provides readers with an examination of leadership and its implications for public and community health services. The book focuses on leaders who demonstrate transformational leadership as they guide public health initiatives and plan for public and community health. Recognizing that effective leadership is essential in all types of public health organizations, the text posits that leaders need to support engagement from many staff and stakeholders and use effective collaboration, coordination, and communication, while also considering diversity, equity, and inclusion, accessibility, social determinants of health, disparities, and population health. Leadership in Public and Community Health presents a multidimensional and highly applicable model of leadership at all levels to well support a variety of health care organizations and initiatives. This book is part of the Cognella Series on Public and Community Health Nursing, a collection of concise, informative guides that explore critical topical areas, their nursing application, and their relationship to nursing practice.
