Yale University Professional Development Program in International Healthcare Management: A Collaboration with the UK’s South Essex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust
Yale University and the South Essex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust located about two hours south of central London have forged a partnership to deliver a Professional Development Program in International Healthcare Management. Participants will earn Yale Certificate in International Healthcare Management.
This dynamic management program is designed to catalyze a new mindset among healthcare senior executives and top managers who must master new leadership and management skills to succeed within the new governance, financial and operational framework of NHS Foundation Trusts. In 2006, Mr. David Nicholson, the Executive Director of the National Health System, called for new leadership and management skills for all those seeking to embrace this mandated change proactively. In 2006, under the vision and leadership of its Executive Director, Patrick Geohegan and his senior management team, the South Essex Partnership Trust (SEPT) successfully moved from the old NHS model to this new, market facing model. Yale is working closely with SEPT to develop a management program that will:
- Develop an analytical framework to help leaders and managers transform organizations from the current NHS structure and financing to a far more competitive, dynamic and evolving health care marketplace.
- Provide both didactic and experiential learning opportunities for managers to both learn about and practice contemporary management tools such as systems thinking, competitive strategic analysis and positioning, financial and managerial accounting, quality improvement through process redesign, decision making under risk, and change management.
- Use case studies taken from the contemporary healthcare delivery setting to highlight the multi-disciplinary nature of key management challenges, and allow participants to apply newly acquired analytical tools and processes.
