During this interactive course, you will learn from experienced WBS faculty, who will cover a range of topics relating to leadership and innovation in healthcare.
Enhance the performance of healthcare services
Leading Strategic Innovation in Healthcare focuses on embedding leadership and innovation in practice, to assist you in the design and implementation of health service provisions within your organisation.
With an emphasis on practical application and improvement, this part-time course will span six key healthcare themes, with each of these being addressed through a mix of learning and exercises. The course content is informed by the research expertise and practical experience of our faculty and colleagues with deep experience of healthcare services, in the UK and in settings across the world. This course will be delivered asynchronously online, allowing you to study at your own pace, and at a time that suits you, wherever you are in the world.
“As people live longer and innovation redefines the ‘art of the possible’, designing and implementing health service provision becomes ever more challenging. To respond to these challenges, we need leadership that is sophisticated and far-reaching. Leadership that draws on a wide range of insights and is developed through exposure to the broadest possible experience, in healthcare and beyond. And these capabilities need to be developed amongst the many, not the few.”
