Leadership

Leads: Deanne (DEE) Taylor & Ming-Ka Chan

Leaders and leadership education must be part of any health system transformation strategy. As a result, leader toolboxes need ongoing updating to keep up with 21st century leadership practices such as the use of technology/AI, systems leadership and resilience, evidence informed/data driven decision making, complexity theory, creativity, antiracism, social justice, and effective ways to partner that across boundaries and sectors. A more explicit relationship between evidence and practice needs to be cultivated through a lifelong learning approach and engagement in networks to share and build knowledge and ideas.

EDI Leadership Toolkit

Effective health leadership is critical to advancing equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI). Women and gender diverse people have long been underrepresented in health settings. This toolkit encourages health leaders to adopt an EDI-lens and provides resources which can enhance one’s understanding of EDI or inspire ideas to improving EDI in the health sector. The toolkit is meant to serve as a reference guide for health leaders to access a variety of materials related to EDI.
