Leading Innovations in Health Care & Education 2019

Leading Innovations in Health Care & Education is organized by Harvard Macy Institute and will be held from Jun 09 - 14, 2019 at Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America.

The target audience for this medical event is to assist you in developing your own strategies for leading change within a rapidly evolving health care delivery system. Using classic management studies and case studies of education reform, you will analyze the interlocking elements of change strategies and develop guiding principles drawn from organizational research. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 39.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.

Conference Description :
Virtually all health care systems are struggling to contain costs while offering excellent quality health care to patients. Similarly, educational programs charged with training future health care providers are challenged with expanding numbers of students, efficiencies in teaching formats and increasing costs.

Teaching/learning formats include case studies with small and full group discussions, interactive presentations, and panel discussions. You will meet each day with others from similar institutions to develop action plans for change. The informal exchange of insights and experiences among international participants and faculty drawn from multiple professional disciplines is a vital part of the experience.

We are fortunate to once again offer this unique leadership course with Harvard Business School Professor Clayton Christensen, internationally recognized for his teaching style and work on disruptive innovation, and best selling author of The Innovator's Prescription and Disrupting Class: How disruption will change the way the world learns. These books are becoming required readings in governments and Academic Health Centers around the world seeking to reform their health care systems and their education programs.

Conference Objectives are :
• Anticipate the disruptive innovations likely to impact health care delivery and intertwined educational programs, including disruptive technologies.
• Use design thinking and design processes to identify and meet needs of target populations.
• Identify local relevance of international trends in health care education and resources as well as accreditation.

• Identify and develop leadership styles that foster systemic educational innovation.
• Negotiate and build coalitions.
• Design strategic and operational plans.
• Obtain and allocate resources.
• Manage conflict and resistance to change.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
