abstract: In order to ensure that public health interests are at the forefront of the health agenda, practitioners will need to be able to operate within the political agenda and develop skills in influencing networking and communication, as well as keeping their essential technical and professional competencies. As part of the Chief Medical Officer's project, a health leadership programme is being developed.
