Abstract
Reviews the role of the clinical director in the NHS, based on data collected in a qualitative research study. Utilizes role theory to invite insight into a relatively new but important managerial role. Suggests that effectiveness in the role may be measured by the extent to which managers are able to meet the expectations of their role set, and also that the overall effectiveness of the clinical direction may be the extent to which he or she is able to influence, adapt, modify or change these role expectations.Keywords
