This web site provides a range of free training materials on aspects of health leadership, diplomacy and economics designed so that you can download them and adapt them to your specific needs. The materials are based on my experience in advising the UK NHS, the EU and the WHO and teaching and advising on aspects of leadership development in some 30 different countries. I am also very grateful to colleagues who provided free access to their training materials to share with you. The materials on this site include:
A note from Graham Lister
Building Leadership for Health has been my way of passing on some of the ideas I have gathered from many of the wonderful people I have worked with over the years. I like to think
every assignment was not only worthwhile and fun and but generated ideas I can share. I have sent out some 1,500 free CDs of training materials to health leaders in
Europe, Africa and Asia, including both my own material and contributions from friends and colleagues.
