Abstract
![CDATA[Leadership relates to all areas of practice and is the means to influence change. The authors discuss current and future health care systems and their impact on leadership. The lack of research into leadership in aged care organisations is a factor that influences the future direction of service delivery. Person-centred care is a concept that acute hospitals are finding difficult to implement. Aged-care services, however, have been changing toward this care approach for some time. There is merit in opening dialogue between service providers to create the preventative and primary care system that is required for the future.]]
