Forwarded by Humber and North Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership (HCP):
Humber and North Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership (HCP) are delighted to tell you about three new system leadership development programmes due to launch in January 2025.
These programmes are specifically tailored to develop system leaders – so if you’re interested in working across the system, this is the programme for you.
To thrive as a system, there is an ongoing need to share talent by creating a system-wide, inclusive and co-ordinated talent management approach which is what they are aiming to provide.
These programmes are intended to encourage colleagues from across Humber and North Yorkshire to discover their own strengths and fulfil their ambitions of becoming future system leaders, with a key focus on addressing the lack of diversity they see from middle to senior management.
Each programme is designed to prepare participants for the next step of their career journey, equipping them with the skills to truly transform health and care across our system.
There are three programmes to share:
Programme 1: Leading from the middle
12-month programme
Aimed at those in a middle management role, who have had previous experience of management (3+ years) or have previously undertaken a management development programme
Opportunity to enhance self-development through psychometric tools, career coaching and working with a senior sponsor
Core learning – both face-to-face and online workshops (leading change and transformation, system theory, successful systems leadership, from analogue to digital, political astuteness, population health, effective decision making etc)
6-week placement
Closes with a celebration event
Programme 2: Senior System Leaders
12-month programme
Aimed at those ready to step into an executive role (existing senior leaders)
Access to networking opportunities, peer-to-peer support and networking sessions
Guest speaker sessions
Masterclasses
Career management support
Programme 3: Advancing international talent
Specifically designed for internationally educated colleagues – people who have trained and worked in healthcare in another country and have since moved to Humber and North Yorkshire
Career management support addressing the barriers people may face
Focus on securing future roles and value of diverse lived experience to creating a health and care system that works for all
All three programme are available to colleagues across the system in all health and care organisations in Humber and North Yorkshire. HCP will strongly encourage and champion applications from minoritised colleagues. Find out more and express an interest by completing the expression of interest formor contact them if you’d like them to come and share more information with your team/ organisation/ department and please feel free to share this information widely.
