Leadership development in the NHS in England: do we really know what works?
pp. 1–10 Lewis, Marie; Hughes, Dickon Weir; Baldie, Deborah
Leadership development is widely considered to be a key driver of improvement in the NHS, yet the effectiveness of existing programmes remains uncertain. This article examines investments in leadership development initiatives and their impact in England, highlighting key programmes such as the Edward Jenner, Mary Seacole and Nye Bevan schemes.

pp. 1–13  Dodd, Matthew; Lappin, Lesley; Hurst, Helen
There is a lack of literature on the experiences of those in tactical command during major or critical incidents in the NHS. This study explored sudden-onset incidents in NHS hospitals, seeking to understand the lived experience of individuals in tactical command roles during these incidents, the concerns that they had and how they addressed them.

pp. 1–4  Newman, Diana; Knight, Megan; Hendry, Anne; … Law, Ruth
Frailty represents a major and growing burden on the healthcare system, with the potential to derail efforts to innovate and reform the NHS in line with the 10-year plan. Diana Newman and colleagues highlight how frailty care can be transformed across the system, with insights and examples from the British Geriatrics Society's ‘Joining the dots’ report.

pp. 1–3  Brown, Craig
Craig Brown highlights the importance of ‘voice’ in healthcare teams, while celebrating NHS managers who continue to strive for better for patients and staff, despite intense political, financial and operational pressures.

pp. 1–10  Ghorbankhani, Melika; Jones, Aled; James, Alison; … Roche, Dominic
Staff speaking up about patient safety concerns is crucial to improving care and learning from mistakes. Poor management responses to speaking up can result in missed opportunities to prevent harm and hinder staff learning. This scoping review explored the literature on managers' responses to staff-raised patient safety concerns in the NHS, identifying key factors that influence these responses and suggesting strategies for improvement.
