Tuesday, April 5, 2022 | We have designed a curriculum specifically to support health care managers and their teams. 

A Learning Collaborative For Managers To Enhance Team Well-Being
Migrant Clinicians Network (MCN) is pleased to offer a four-part Learning Collaborative (LC) for managers. The LC sessions will be provided in English. We have designed a curriculum specifically to support health care managers and their teams. The curriculum emphasizes ways to strengthen individual, team, and organizational resilience, the better to face current and future personal and workplace challenges. The curriculum addresses empathic distress, moral injury, grief, adaptive change, team building, and leadership. The sessions are highly interactive. Handouts and resource packets will be made available to strengthen skill-building and support participants.

Participants should plan a six-hour commitment for these small, facilitated discussion groups. Each session is scheduled for 90 minutes. The content of each session builds on each prior session, so we ask for a four-session commitment.
