    Foundations for Emerging and Aspiring Leaders in Community Health

    10 Hour LeaderShift Certificate Course

    Stepping into a leadership role for the first time can feel overwhelming. How do you motivate a team when you're still finding your footing? What's the right balance between being approachable and maintaining authority? How do you handle difficult conversations with former peers? This course is designed specifically for emerging and aspiring leaders in community-based health and social services who are navigating these challenges.

    Future-Ready Leadership: Skills for an Evolving Healthcare Landscape

    Five-Part Certificate Course  
    Live Virtual Certificate Course: Five Sessions, Each Two-Hours Long 

    Ontario’s healthcare system is moving rapidly towards a more integrated, holistic and personalized model of care. In this shifting landscape, leadership is no longer defined by position alone—success depends on the ability to develop new mindsets, build strategic partnerships, and influence change across organizations.

    With community-based health and social care organizations playing an increasingly vital role in this transformation, leaders at all levels must develop new skills to thrive in a complex and collaborative environment.
