Abstract

Eastern Mediterranean societies, or Western Asian, are rich in diversity, culture, history, religions, and vision. The area has been seeing significant socioeconomic changes in various directions, ranging from growth to economic recession. Women and their role in leadership in healthcare have been a prominent discussion, especially after the Covid-19 pandemic. This chapter explores the current landscape of Women Leadership in Healthcare through the lens of women leaders who have led influential healthcare careers in the region. From their experience complemented by a targeted literature review, key lessons will be proposed that can help future generations of women in health in the area and beyond become successful leaders.
