Abstract
This article provides an overview of the development and implementation of a management development strategy for the South Western Sydney Area Health Service (SWSAHS). The program, the Frontline Management Initiative (FMI), was introduced as a developmental tool which enabled managers to identify those competencies that they already possess and those which they need to develop. The FMI will be progressively implemented throughout the five sector health services of SWSAHS comprising approximately 1500 managers. This article outlines the introduction and experience of FMI in one sector health service, the development and assessment of a manager's portfolio, the pathway developed from FMI to university based health management courses, the lessons learnt and the future directions for management development.
