Collective Leadership in tackling inequalities in health in Merseyside
Manchester Business School is working with the public health directors across
Merseyside in assessing the extent to which collective leadership can help in
reducing inequalities in health through the use of effective networks,
increasing knowledge and skills and, to achieve this, by improving the way in
which partners collect, collate and use intelligence.

Knowledge and Skills (LINKS)
The work in Merseyside comprises a number of different approaches. It begins with an analysis of collective leadership through the Compass leadership framework, and is then supported by a social network analysis and effective intelligence profiling. COMPASS 360 leadership is based on the values and behaviours that underpin collective leadership. Collective leadership is where organisations share their leadership (across organisations) and distribute leadership (within organisations) in a way that secures collective achievement in social, economic and environmental well-being.

Compass Leadership Inventory explained
The Collective Leadership Inventory (CLI) is a self assessment tool that is intended to assist the leadership development of those involved in collective leadership within the public sector.
The CLI originated as a product of a series of ESRC funded seminars from 2006 through to 2008 which involved discussion and deliberation between senior academics, senior practitioners and senior policy makers from across the public sector. This was published as "The Public Leadership Challenge".
The background to the seminar, the drivers for public leadership and the new skills that are considered appropriate for public leaders will be published in an edited book (Brookes and Grint 2010 forthcoming) by Palgrave MacMillan or by visiting http://www.publicleadership.org

through an increased understanding of the interaction of various factors.
Collective Leadership can play a key role in both understanding and dealing with
these complexities.
