| Abstrakt: | Given the shortage of long-term care administrators and the aging population of our country, efforts to enhance the pool of appropriate and well-prepared candidates in long-term care leadership professions are vital. Undergraduate institutions that train long-term care leaders should focus on the refinement of pedagogical practices. This study utilized ex post facto and survey data to assess characteristics of potential long-term care leaders in conjunction with success measures and perceived success. The study validated the Long Term Care Administrator (LTCA) Self-Assessment Tool, an instrument developed to assess fit and to draw interest to the field, confirming 10 characteristics as important to long-term care leadership and professional preparedness: organization, critical thinking, people skills, attitude, confidence, communication, visionary leadership, sense of caring, change agent, and business sense. Recommendations for undergraduate long-term care administration programs are provided, including recruitment activity, further use of the LTCA Self-Assessment Tool in program curriculum and inclusion of pedagogical focus on each of the 10 leadership characteristics.
