Pandora's Box: clinical directorates and the NHS
Abstract
Reports on the research concerning the current debate surrounding the maturity of clinical directorates. Indicates that there is some ambiguity as to how directorates should be structured and strategically managed. Finds evidence that trust executive boards need to involve clinicians in setting strategy and to support clinical directors with suitable business managers to manage the boundary between strategic and operational issues.
