Abstract

Clinician leadership is important for quality healthcare delivery, but does it collide with the image of a healer? This study explores different leadership styles of doctors and contextual factors causing it in a corporate, private hospital in South India. Managerial Grid questionnaire and Semi-structured interviews are used to elicit data. Thematic Analysis is used to interpret Semi-structured interview data. It is found that a few position holders are exhibiting appropriate style while most of them are exhibiting styles that are incompatible with their job description. The deterrents identified in the study prevent the healer to become a leader. At the same time, these deterrents also prevent the healers to reconcile with the growing importance of clinical leadership.
