Mental health leadership training: a survey of state directors.
There is periodic support in the mental health literature for increased training opportunities in the area of management and leadership. The purpose of this study was to verify the need for such training as perceived by state directors of mental health and mental retardation/developmental disabilities programs and to explore related issues. The results confirmed a perception of need and provided insights into ways that such training might be successfully provided to states.
