INTRODUCTION: The qualification of managers in terms of management skills is one of the most important factors in the continuous success of each organization, and utilizing such skills can have a positive contribution in the effectiveness of the organization while improving the performance of the employees in line with the objectives and goals of the organization. The study's primary objective was to examine the necessary skills of the hospital managers and their capabilities to manage the challenges in providing health care facilities to their patients and employees. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study is a qualitative that deep interviews were performed with 22 managers (senior and middle managers) of educational hospitals of Kermanshah city, and the sample size was 22 individuals. The interviews were analyzed by a MAXQDA software application after transcription. RESULTS: This study includes 8 themes and 23 subthemes. The strategic skill, the perceptive skill, the human relations skill, work experience, and personal characteristics were among the skills necessary for hospital managers. Some of the challenges facing the hospital managers included rapid changes in the policies, the limitations of financial resources, and lack of proportion between the educational and occupational spheres. CONCLUSION: Because of their existential philosophy and differences with other service sectors, managing hospitals poses a particular sensitivity. In this regard, the role of the hospital manager is very important. Therefore, in order to meet the satisfaction of those receiving services, decision-makers and policy-makers must think twice when selecting and appointing hospital managers and evaluate and appraise this group in terms of abilities and skills necessary for managing such an important service section.

“…Given this scenario, a vital research question arises as to the profiles of CI in females compared to males in light of the hybridisation required to effectively implement praxis in the fields of complex decision-making requirements. Thus far, only Kutz et al (2017) investigated differences in CI of females with different levels of education, while Kutz and Stiltner (2022) looked into differences between education level, experience level, and the number of credentials. We followed these research efforts in the context of the pharmaceutical/biotech sector to address the research questions of how CI behaviours differ between: RQ1: gender; RQ2: age; RQ3: education level; RQ4: area of study (related to the context, i.e.…”

“…However, there were no differences between males and females. Kutz et al (2017) studied healthcare managers and found, among other things, that female healthcare managers with bachelor's degrees reported practice of four CI behaviours more frequently than those with some college/technical training, and in three cases those with masters' degrees more frequently than those with some college/technical training. However, the results with regard to age and education differed for specific dimensions, with no consistent patterns which could be generalised.…”

The objective of this article is to explore the concept of contextual intelligence (CI) as an important individual trait in complex decision-making environments and to understand its antecedents. Research Design & Methods:We surveyed 52 professionals from the pharmaceutical/biotech sector to explore the antecedents of CI behaviours by using Spearman's rho correlation analysis, Student's t-tests, and a two-stage cluster analysis. Findings: Gender does not appear to differentiate the level of CI, while age is only negatively correlated with future-minded behaviour. Respondents with doctorate education were characterised by a higher level of communitarian behaviours than those with lower education qualification attainment. Implications & Recommendations:In roles which are subject to VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity) conditions, the integration of linguistics, cultural awareness, and analytical abilities are important besides interpersonal skills, especially in face-to-face or virtual interactions. Contribution & Value Added:Our study provides a novel empirical contribution to the concept of CI through an exploratory study of medical affairs professionals and their self-reported CI behaviour profiles, including several individual-level characteristics.

“…21 CI is reported to help in identifying external and internal influences that are not immediately obvious, help in considering nonlinear relationships, promote a holistic perspective to resolve tensions among opposite ideas, and generate innovative outcomes. 22 In 2019, in a response to the changes in the health care environment, nurse educators Miles and Scott 17 proposed a new theoretical model (the Nursing Leadership Development Model) for the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, which identified contextual intelligence as necessary for educating nurse leaders. It has also been reported that CI is a useful intervention for navigating turbulent social and professional environments.…”

The Need for Contextual Intelligence in Athletic Training

Athletic training and the environment in which it is practiced is constantly changing. The emergent environment is volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous. This new environment necessitates an adjustment to athletic training education particularly as it pertains to the instruction and development of the nonclinical skills (meta-skills) needed for clinical settings. One such meta-skill is contextual intelligence. Contextual intelligence is the capacity to recognize the convergence of different variables and respond to the emerging context as it is developing. Practicing contextual intelligence includes integrating 12 specific behaviors and the 3D thinking framework of hindsight, insight, and foresight into clinical decision making.
