Management Skills Training for Healthcare Staff

Overview
Medical staff are commonly called upon in managerial roles. Many however, have received little or no formal training. Training team leaders in soft management skills should improve the functions and outputs of the hospital teams. This has been recognized by many countries and such training has been incorporated in the training programs of young doctors and nurses. Our aim is to provide a comprehensive training program that enhances these skills allowing for better function of the teams and facilitating the changes and evolutions required in the hospitals. The program is conducted through a series of workshops that are discrete yet relate in content. This allows the staff to attend at their own pace. The contents of the program are customized to the needs of hospitals and their staff. This is assessed through preliminary visits including interviews and surveys. This program will be available for individuals as well. Certificates of course completion will be provided.
