Common management and leadership definitions

Leadership is the ability to identify priorities, set a vision, and mobilize the actors and
resources needed to achieve them.

Organisational climate is “the shared meaning employees attach to the policies, practices
and procedures they experience and the behaviours they observe getting rewarded,
supported and expected

Organisational culture is defined as “the values and beliefs that characterise organisations as
transmitted by the socialisation experiences newcomers have, the decisions made by
management, and the stories and myths people tell and re-tell about their organisations”.

A leadership vacuum exists when many people agree a problem exists, it needs to be solved,
BUT there's no obvious person whose responsibility it is to solve the problem. In short, the
problem is everybody's problem and nobody's problem all at the same time

Interactive Leadership is a leadership style implying that leaders work to make their
interaction with subordinates positive for all. Interactive leaders encourage participation,
share power and information, enhance other people's self-worth and stimulate excitement
about work.

A horizontal function refers to the interventions provided by a country's government


through a public health system, while vertical functions are typically donor driven,
disease specific and not always well integrated into the health system

Health services (curative and preventive) can be provided using two modes of
delivery: horizontal and vertical. By horizontal delivery, services are delivered
through public financed health systems and are commonly referred as
comprehensive primary care. Vertical delivery of health services implies a selective
targeting of specific interventions not fully integrated in health systems.

Universal health coverage : UHC is the aspiration that all people can obtain the
health services they need, of good quality, without suffering financial hardship when

rehabilitation and palliative care,all levels of service delivery (from community health
workers to tertiary hospitals) and services across the life course. As such, they also
address communicable and noncommunicable diseases.
