Executive-level leadership and talent management in NHSScotland: overview paper

Dimensions

12. The enabling dimensions to achieve this aim comprise:

• values-based recruitment;

• performance management and appraisal;

• leadership development;

• talent management and succession planning; and

• governance and oversight.

13. These dimensions will be designed to work together as part of a new nationally led approach which will ensure that the most talented and able leaders can be identified, developed and supported as their careers progress. This will require new national level arrangements working in collaboration with NHSScotland employers.
