International Journal of Public Leadership : The need for innovation in deathcare leadership


Purpose – The purpose of this viewpoint essay is to examine deathcare leadership during the COVID-19
pandemic and recommend innovations to employ a more human-centric approach.
Design/methodology/approach – This viewpoint essay uses scholarly and popular literature to explore
deathcare practices during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and to identify limitations of existing mass
fatality management policies.
Findings – Deathcare leadership in the USA lacks a human-centric approach. Rationalistic mass fatality
management during COVID-19 left families struggling with grief and mourning because many burial rituals
could not take place. This essay suggests a humanistic approach to death management through leadership
innovations as a remedy to this problem. Such leadership innovations can improve responses to deathcare
during this ongoing pandemic and future public health emergencies.
Originality/value – This essay offers practical improvements to make deathcare more human-centric.
