Like in most areas of businesses and professional life, possession of technical skills is necessary, but not sufficient to assure success. Individuals at the top echelons of organisations, be it private or public, require communication, interpersonal, leadership and change management skills to succeed personally and to drive excellent organisational performance. There is no gainsaying that recent development in public health issues, innovation, challenges of inadequate resources/finance, coverage, emerging disease/conditions, and management require a particular skill-set. This workshop is designed to address this cogent issues and capacity gaps.
