  • Exploration of leadership development programs and their accessibility to BAME nurses.

    • Main Results:

    • BAME nurses encounter systemic barriers, including unconscious bias and limited sponsorship opportunities, hindering their progression.
    • Current leadership development initiatives may not adequately address the specific needs and challenges of BAME nurses.
    • A gap exists between policy intentions for diversity and actual implementation in senior appointments.

    Conclusions:

    • Addressing the underrepresentation of BAME nurses in senior roles requires targeted strategies to dismantle systemic barriers.
    • Enhanced mentorship, sponsorship programs, and bias training are crucial for fostering inclusive leadership pathways.
    • Promoting diversity in NHS leadership is essential for equitable patient care and organizational effectiveness.
