Description

This module seeks to strengthen your knowledge of business, management and organisational principles and practices within the contemporary health sector. It emphasises a critical and reflective approach in the consideration of contemporary issues. You will have to draw on and reflect upon your own experiences of organisations and share them with peers during group discussions.

The topics will be selected by the EMBA Health academic staff on an annual basis. Some of the topics that might be included are:

  • Digital Health Transformation and Opportunities in Healthcare
  • Social Determinants of Health
  • The Business of Behavioural Health and Ageing
  • Leading Change in Healthcare
  • AI for Health Solutions
  • Population Health Management
  • Systems Leadership

You will be asked to prioritise your five top topics. You will then be assigned three topics across the first six weeks of the module.

Wrap up weeks for this module will be more focused on sharing learning and reflection, but as always, it will be led by health professionals who work in the various themed areas that you have been discussing and evaluating over the previous three weeks. They will take you through real world case studies that solidify the application of these themes.
