A Pan-Canadian Systems Approach to Health System Leadership Capacity-Building

Wednesday October 30th, 10:30 am - 12:00 pm ET

Now more than ever, the entire health system needs capable, confident leaders who are equipped to handle increasingly complex leadership and management issues and can facilitate the system transformation agenda.
