Public Health Leadership

For over 20 years the current model of Public Health Leadership Institutes (PHLIs) has been the primary model for “leadership” development. Past studies have shown that the model is successful in increasing participants’ knowledge and developing individual skills. However, limited evidence suggests that the model leads to outcome-based results. This review compares the current PHLI model with traditional corporate leadership development models and determines that the PHLI model is in fact related more closely with a “leader” development model. Additionally, it is suggested that it is not possible to measure outcome-based results because of the limitations of the current model. Finally, recommendations are made to refine the model to make it more closely aligned with a true “leadership” development model, thus making it more effective at educating and training the current public health workforce.

AbstractThe public health leadership and management of lead exposure in a lead mining and smelting community in Mount Isa is an ongoing issue. There exists deficiencies in public health and environmental legal frameworks that regulate lead exposure and management in Mount Isa, Queensland. Although some positive practical measures on lead containment have been implemented, evidence suggests they are currently inadequate. Greater investments in public health leadership at a local and state level are required to address the ongoing issue of lead in Mount Isa.

AbstractBackgroundCOVID-19 outbreak is spreading globally. Although the risk of infection in the US is currently low, it is important to understand the public perception of risk and trust in sources of information to better inform public health messaging. In this study, we surveyed the adult US population to understand their risk perceptions about the COVID-19 outbreak.Methods and FindingsWe used an online platform to survey 718 adults in the US in early February 2020 using a questionnaire that we developed. Our sample was fairly similar to the general adult US population in terms of age, gender, race, ethnicity and education. We found that 69% of the respondents wanted the scientific/public health leadership (either the CDC Director or NIH Director) to lead the US response to COVID-19 outbreak as compared to 14% who wanted the political leadership (either the president or the Congress) to lead the response. Risk perception was low (median score of 5 out of 10) with the respondents trusting health professionals and health officials for information on COVID-19. Majority of the respondents were in favor of strict infection prevention policies to control the outbreak.ConclusionGiven our results, the public health/scientific leadership should be at the forefront of the COVID-19 response to promote trust.
