    Hi Health Care TG Members,

    The journal Psychology of Leaders and Leadership, edited by Liz Lazzara and Beth Blickensderfer, has a call for submissions on Leadership in Healthcare, which I am guest editing. Papers can be qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-methods, and we are open to a variety of topics (some ideas below). Submissions are due June 15.

    Potential topics include, but are not limited to…

    • Adaptation of healthcare leaders in response to, and after, crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic
    • The role of the leader in provider and staff wellness and burnout
    • The emerging leadership role of Chief Informatics Officers and their effects on patients, employees, and organizations
    • Challenges in healthcare leadership in relation to external factors (e.g., societal issues, payer models)
    • Leadership in healthcare teams, and the role of the leader in creating team psychological safety
    • Leading ad hoc healthcare teams undergoing increased membership change due to turnover and increases in short-term team members (e.g., travel nurses)
    • How leadership influences patient safety and quality
    • Diversity in healthcare leadership (e.g., leaders of color, women, LGBTQ+ leaders, etc.)
    • Socially responsible leadership in healthcare
    • The role of leadership at unit/department levels vs. leadership at hospital or health systems levels

    I would love for some TG members to submit! Please feel free to pass this along to others who may be interested and reach out to me with any questions at megan.gregory@ufl.edu. Thanks!
