Learners will be able to explore a range of approaches and techniques.

The RCVS has announced the launch of two new resources in its Leadership Library to help professionals develop leadership and Quality Improvement skills.

Both topics feature curated content from trusted sources, research and insight from RCVS Knowledge and guides from team leaders across the RCVS.

The content will enable learners to reflect on the importance of excellent team-working and communication to achieve high-quality outcomes and the leadership skills required to build and sustain healthy workplace cultures."

She added: “Learners can explore a range of approaches and techniques designed to help teams develop and embed good practice in quality improvement. The content also includes recent research into leadership and culture and looks at the skills and strategies needed to cultivate a work environment where people are able to perform at their best.”
