Program Structure
Shaping the leaders of tomorrow – An innovative curriculum tailored to strengthen your leadership skills
Our program provides participants with the unique opportunity to combine a state-of-the-art education with the latest insights in the medical science and health care sector. We aim to help you develop the necessary skillset for your future as a leader in an international setting through interactive teaching sessions and the use of case studies. During informal get-togethers and discussions, you will be able to form lasting connections with experts and peers in your field.
Assignments, case studies and practical exercises allow for a transformation of the theory into specific, practice-oriented skills and knowledge. Our program focuses specifically on interdisciplinary team work, efficient process organization, innovation and new treatment strategies as well as personal and team development – designed for the health care leaders of tomorrow.
Modules
The program lasts for eight months and covers a wide range of topics within the following six modules:
- Strategy
- Leadership
- Innovation
- Change Management and Communication
- Digitization
- Field trip
Learning objectives
- Delivering state-of-the-art knowledge in management and the medical sciences and the health care sector
- Establishing and maintaining business excellence
- Developing leadership skills and being part of an international network in medicine and health care
Our course aim is to provide an international executive education for medical science and health care experts focusing on leadership and medical excellence.
The Leadership Course for Cardiovascular Experts is an important building block for physicians with aspirations of achieving a leadership position in their hospital or institution. Physicians spend almost all of their training learning about disease processes, but precious little time learning about leadership and management. This course will help prepare the cardiovascular leaders of tomorrow for new challenges and opportunities that they will encounter in leadership positions.
Management and leadership training is somewhat missing in the current university education. Therefore, young doctors are not prepared for these tasks. The competitive world of medical healthcare needs leaders who have extensive experience in business skills and people skills. This course aims to ensure that future leaders are prepared for these tasks and to close the existing gap.
In times of increasing patient numbers, cost pressure and new levels of competition, leaders in medicine also have to steer their teams through changing environments and drive change and innovation themselves. This HHL-LHI Course provided me with several tools to engage in these topics and helped me with shaping my own agenda of leadership. On top of this, it served as a fantastic platform for networking with other professionals in the field.
