HEAL

resilient leader

Now more than ever, the systems and people working within healthcare are close to collapse. Only through resilient, agile and wise leadership, can we be the difference we want to make – and that starts with the individual. Focusing on a leadership challenge of your choice, you’ll explore practical ways to reframe challenges, work with paradoxes, influence others and realize goals. You’ll also learn resilience practices, breathing exercises, zazen meditation, ways to manage energy, and how to apply all this to your team or system.

Find a “new you” capable of thriving in a chaotic system.
Know where you can make a difference. Reconnect with purpose and reframe challenges into opportunities.
Learn to shift between four modes of leadership.
Develop daily resilience practices including breathing exercises and zazen meditation.
Apply and customise practices and learnings to your workplace.

The disruption of these times is nowhere more evident than in healthcare where systems and people are often at the brink of breakdown or burnout. This is where leadership matters greatly and leaders who are resilient, agile and wise can make a world of difference. The HEAL program develops and fortifies more of them.

Participants are asked to come with a leadership challenge to address during the program. They’re also encouraged, though not required, to attend in colleague pairs to enhance application of learnings afterwards.

The program is set in a rich, experiential learning environment. No prior meditation or physical training experience is required.
