Clinical management and professionalism
No full textA distinctive feature of new public management (NPM) reforms over the last two decades has been the drive to co-opt professionals such as clinicians, social workers, and teachers into the management of services. Profession- als taking on these roles have been considered ‘hybrids’, owing to the fact that they straddle both professional and managerial domains, often bridg- ing the gap between two occupational groups with different interests and priorities. In health services this trend has been especially pronounced with doctors becoming far more active in the strategic management of hospitals and other organizations, through membership of boards, but also at lower levels, working as clinical directors or general practitioners responsible for budgets to commission services. More recently there have been calls to encourage a wider constituency of clinical professionals, even those who do not become managers, to perform leadership roles. With many professional bodies them- selves now supporting these changes, it would seem that clinical leadership has moved from ‘the dark side to centre stage’ (Ham et al., 2011). Indeed, it may be increasingly problematic to view management and professionalism as opposing forces, as deeper connections emerge which are, arguably, leading to entirely new forms of ‘hybrid professionalism’ (Brommels, 2008; Kuhlmann et al, 2013)

Book Review [White Bound: Nationalists, Antiracists, and the Shared Meanings of Race, by MW Hughey]
No full textDr Kathy A. Mills provides a critical synthesis and review of the new book by Matthew W. Hughey entitle: White Bound: Nationalists, Antiractists, and the Shared Meanings of Race, published by Standford University Press in 2012. A sample of Dr Mills' review reads: \ud
\ud
"The author positions race squarely at the center to challenge the shared assumptions of white supremacist logic on both sides of the debate. The clever thesis blurs the boundaries between “good whites” and “bad whites”, rendering the white reader intellectually stimulated, but existentially unchanged – White Bound – as the author ponders: “Perhaps we have met the enemy, and he [it] is us” (p.193)...The unanswered question that remains is: How do we resist the various “shades” of white supremacy to pursue counter-hegemonic practices?
