Leadership & Modern Healthcare Organisations

Management is a team activity. No matter how well a team is managed, it will perform according to the degree of performance of each individual. An effective leader should use the right tools to ensure each team member performs to their maximum potential.

• How does a supervisor activate their subordinates?
• How can they create an environment where existing employees can be driven to maximum performance with the right incentives?
• Is there one way of management that may have better results than another

JOIST Innovation Park’s new interactive seminar answers these and even more relevant questions about leadership and modern healthcare organizations. This is a 6-hour hybrid workshop specifically designed for:

• Heads of health organizations (hospitals, clinics, laboratories, etc.)
• Employees – Executives who lead a team
• Those who wish to acquire the necessary skills to occupy a supervisor position in the future.

Through the application of participatory educational techniques, participants will be able to:

• Distinguish the different leadership styles
• Associate leadership behaviour with the effectiveness of the leader
• Identify the differences between management and leadership
• Inspire and direct employees to achieve higher performance goals
• Make them communicators in the effort to implement different leadership styles
