Mentioned above are a few of the most important characteristics that are needed in a healthcare leader. I think it is common to forget about how much responsibility and how much work it takes to be a leader of any sort especially a healthcare leader. Throughout the last year and a half of a weird period of time in our world, our healthcare leaders have been pushed to the max with stress and putting their leadership skills to the test. When I read this discussion post and what we were supposed to write about I instantly thought about my health care manager that I work for part time and what she has done in since March of 2020 to make COVID-19 the smoothest it could've possibly been. The character trait of having good communication skills is one of the most important characteristic traits in my opinion. Traits such as being empathetic and being loyal are the types of traits that makes your staff feel comfortable and allows them to be more communicative and willing to come forward.
