“…Alternatively, a skills-based approach to leadership may be relevant in the dental context, although there is said to be merit in exploring both traits and skills underpinning successful leadership (Yukl, 2013, p. 166).

[ 42 p255] A literature review specifically about clinical leadership in healthcare reported that there is no standard definition of clinical leadership, but that the clinical component relates to “ anyone with a clinical patient role” .
