TRAINING CONTENT AND OBJECTIVES
Amidst the existing chaos of 21st century healthcare redesign, leaders in healthcare must be prepared to lead change projects which shape healthcare practices, policy, and education. It is imperative for leaders in healthcare to identify problems and promote effective change when seeking to realize improvement and translate evidence-based research into practice innovation. This interactive 6-part virtual leadership series will be provided in partnership with the Kentucky Association of Health Care Facilities (KAHCF) and Radiant & Resilient Leadership to bring care back to caring while empowering healthcare leaders with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively lead within their organizations and communities amidst the given state of chaos in healthcare.

Target Audience: This online learning series will be designed for current leaders, administrators, management or high-potential leaders, who are currently supervising others or are poised to do so within the next 6-12 months.
