Healthcare Leadership

3 courses
Just Culture, Just Cause, and the Compassionate Leader
Just Culture, Just Cause, and the Compassionate Leader
Healthcare leaders inherit two distinct accountability traditions and most are operating in both at once without knowing it. This course teaches leaders, HR partners, and clinical educators to distinguish Just Culture from Just Cause, integrate them through compassionate leadership, and run accountability work that is auditable, defensible, and humane in the same motion.
