On 28 February, NHS England (NHSE) launched its leadership competency framework (LCF) for board members. This was accompanied by a revised chair appraisal framework.

Part of a planned suite of management and leadership development training, tools and resources for NHS organisations, the LCF will form the cornerstone of NHSE's future support and development offer to board members and aspirant directors.

Our next day briefing sets out the key elements of the documents, how they are intended to be used, and includes NHS Providers view on them.
