📚 A recent study of 5,450 state and community leaders has uncovered valuable insights into leadership capacity and mindset in tackling complex issues. 🤝 The research article titled, How attitudes of state and community leaders regarding health equity and social determinants of health are associated with behavioral intentions to improve population health, finds two key attitudes in leaders that are associated with their intentions: "self-efficacy" and "behaviors valued by important others." 💼 Leaders' confidence in taking action, and alignment with organizational values are crucial. Efforts to improve complex problems should support leaders' confidence and increase external support. These findings can guide governmental entities and funders to support leaders’ efforts in driving positive change in our communities! 💪 Check out the research here: https://hubs.ly/Q02xtCS00 #Leadership #PopulationHealth #PositiveChange
