Healthcare Leadership

Programme Highlights

The biggest healthcare challenge of our time – the COVID-19 pandemic – has shown the world the crucial and invaluable role of healthcare and is one of the catalysts for the clinical, financial, and operational transformation of the healthcare industry (Deloitte, 2022).

Effective leadership will be crucial in shaping organisational culture and driving the implementation of transformations in the healthcare industry. Healthcare leaders must capitalise on the organisation’s diversity to efficiently utilise resources, design effective processes, and encourage personnel to work towards common goals.

Curated with a strong emphasis on real-world relevance to meet rapidly evolving industry needs and trends, the Healthcare Leadership programme offered by the National University of Singapore Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine will develop you as a Whole Leader: Starting from a personal perspective—your traits, created identity, and what leadership means to you—and expanding to explore the competencies and skills required to build and lead a team, and how to identify where the true power and influence of the organisation lie to navigate barriers to change and growth.
