Partha Kar, a consultant in diabetes and endocrinology at Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust, discusses the importance of leadership in the NHS. He highlights a gap between the leadership principles emphasized by the NHS and the actual failures in leadership that affect patient outcomes and access to care. Kar suggests applying the “Klopp test,” inspired by former Liverpool Football Club coach Jurgen Klopp, to assess NHS leaders. This test focuses on changing doubters into believers and leaving a positive impact when exiting a leadership role. Kar emphasizes the need for NHS leaders to earn the respect and admiration of healthcare staff and patients to improve the system.
