Leading large healthcare organisations is no easy task. With the current health systems challenges faced by the sector today, being able lead an organisation that can both balance the best care with value for money, delivering for both individuals and society as a whole is of real-world value.
With this in mind, we cordially invite you to attend our Leading NICE in uncertain times seminar with guest speaker Sam Roberts, Chief Executive of the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence as part of our health leaders voices series.
This series invites leaders to speak frankly about their experience as health leaders. All of the speakers are individuals who have made an incredible difference to health and healthcare through their courageous and transformative leadership.
The series is designed to be highly interactive, with speakers presenting their thoughts for 20 – 30 minutes before opening up for an engaging conversation with the audience. These powerful stories that will be shared offer the audience opportunities to reflect and learn about the world of health and leadership.
