African Public Health Leadership and Systems Innovation Initiative

The African Public Health Leadership and Systems Innovation Initiative will develop a replicable model for improving public health leadership and system performance.

The Initiative will increase health leader effectiveness by cultivating managerial and administrative skills and by addressing the attitudes, values and relationships that drive behavior. Through an Innovation Lab, it stimulates system change by enabling cross-sectoral health leadership teams to develop and launch innovation projects that address pivotal health system opportunities or bottlenecks. Health leadership teams from government, business and civil society will be formed, and guided through an intensive leadership development and project-based learning experience.

The Initiative is starting in Namibia, and will develop a model and make curricula and other materials available for subsequent replications across Africa.

Synergos is joined in this initiative by McKinsey & Company, Generon Consulting and Society for Organizational Learning/Presencing Institute.
