Sunnybrookers represent our most cherished and critical resource. That’s why Sunnybrook continues to invest in developing its current and emerging leaders through many opportunities, including a new partnership with the Rotman School of Management. This collaboration led to the creation of a custom ‘Health Leadership Development Program’, an immersive 6-month journey that supports the development of Sunnybrookers with core leadership skills and specific training in tackling complex health care issues. The program focuses on enhancing the ability of participants to appreciate the complexity of Ontario’s health system, lead and manage change, build emotional and political intelligence, and develop integrative thinking skills. A formal mentorship opportunity is also part of the experience and helps the participants apply their learning to real life challenges.
“What was amazing is this program helped break down silos within Sunnybrook and allowed us to get to know each other in a way outside of the regular work-day. This quickly enhanced my network within Sunnybrook which was extremely valuable as many of these connections would not have been made without this program. Thank you for investing in us!”
