"The IMHL program has equipped me with a transformative set of skills and perspectives, which I have successfully applied in my professional endeavours. The knowledge gained and the connections formed within the program have not only enhanced my ability to navigate complex health management challenges but have also had a positive impact on my community as I contribute to improved healthcare outcomes."

CEO, GNRC Sixmile Hospital, India

鈥淚MHL has been a life changing experience for me at a time when our organisation was going through a tremendous change both in terms of size as well as culture. It helped me grow as a professional by taking into account the global scenario of healthcare & how we could impact it by our all-inclusive affordable healthcare model which we had started in the Northeast India. Most importantly having Prof. Leslie as my advisor for my final paper helped me prepare a very useful tool to analyse the financial sustainability of our new healthcare model. All in all IMHL helped me shoulder the new responsibilities which I undertook in my organisation right after the program.鈥�

鈥淲hen I decided to enrol into the IMHL program, my purpose was to learn from excellent Faculty but also from other students around the world to challenge my views and concepts in healthcare and management. In the end, I got much more than that, and the program allowed me to reflect and evolve as a leader and as an advocate, which I believe has played a role in the success of our non-profit organization dedicated to improving survival for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Quebec. I couldn't be more appreciative for the lessons learned during this Masters program, which continues to serve me daily.鈥�

In 2023, the Quebec government announced that it would provide the Jacques de Champlain Foundation with funding to install 900 defibrillators throughout Quebec and to improve and maintain the Quebec AED registry.

Directrice des services professionnels, CIUSSS de la Capitale-Nationale, Quebec City, Canada

"As a physician, I chose IMHL to learn about best healthcare management practices around the world. The program met my expectations, but my most precious learning was not about systems or specific management skills. I learned to become a better person by humbly listening, questioning, sharing, understanding, creating and changing within a community. Management is about humans and the connections you build with them. This program changed my life and I still use IMHL learnings everyday!鈥�

鈥淭hrough the IMHL program, and the pedagogy of 5 mindsets, it will not only open up your perspectives on leadership and health care, but about our health ecosystem. It will open up the realities of our actual ecosystem, and how we individually and collectively can impact ourselves, our circle of influence, the systems for which you function. The program and more importantly the people in the program, inspire you to make those changes, in your profession, in your leadership, and your life.鈥�

鈥淎s a mid-career doctor and leader in the NHS, I was looking for a Masters that balanced theory with practice and that would broaden my horizons by working with experienced international colleagues. What I got was much more than that: an inspirational time of learning, development, friendship, challenge and enjoyment. During my time in the course I moved from NHS England to The King鈥檚 Fund and not a day goes by without my IMHL experience having an impact for me and the populations I serve.鈥�

"The IMHL does much more than teach students a managerial skill-set. It allows us to dive into the complexity of human relationships, whether by providing us very rich and thoughtful content, or by leading exceptional and innovative class workshops. I entered the IMHL as a clinician, and after the second Module was offered my first management position as Project Manager at Westmount Square Health Group (Montreal, Canada).鈥�

鈥淚 have been in a management role for some time, as have many doctors, but the opportunity to have training and experience that is relevant to that is very slim.听听In this program what you have is the chance to learn some skills that can take your management or leadership to the next level.鈥�

鈥�Dr. Danny Sullivan
Consultant, Forensic and Adult Psychiatrist, Australia

鈥淭he program was transformative for me, my thinking, how I view, interact and process the world around me. Reflecting on the events of the past three years makes me consider myself incredibly lucky to be an alumnus of the program. I am convinced that my experience aligns with experiences of those who have gone through the program and I would encourage all prospective leaders in health to go for it.鈥�

"This program gave me the confidence to take charge of my career and take some chances. And it really allowed me to say go for the executive job you are looking for. You have the skill set that surpasses a Harvard business school graduate鈥� truly."

鈥淣ot a day goes by that I don't derive great value from my IMHL experience.鈥�

鈥�Jim Huntzicker (IMHL'08)
Professor, Division of Management, Oregon Health and Science University, USA

鈥淚 think the most striking thing about the IMHL group is that it brings together lots of diversity of opinions, age, cultural backgrounds. You know you have got the really experienced people and not so experienced people. You got people from other countries, you got people from developing countries and people from very advanced countries. And so I think that all of that really just gives you perspectives that you don鈥檛 get it in your working environment, when you are in the same place working with the same group people. I think it has been really valuable learning from the experienced folks and also from the folks who see things by the fresh eyes and aren鈥檛 constrained by whatever the experience has been in their lives so far.鈥�

鈥淎s a senior executive in the North American private and public health sectors, the IMHL鈥檚 managerial mindsets provided me with an effective framework for my work and supports the coaching and mentoring I undertake on behalf of emerging health leaders. 听The discipline of self and group reflection has been integrated into my work and life - it鈥檚 an invaluable practice. 听Finally, I鈥檝e made lasting professional connections and friendships with health leaders from across the globe who participated in my IMHL cohort or are part of the broader IMHL alumni and faculty. 听Despite having years of senior level management experience when I enrolled at 海角社区, the IMHL program provided new and valuable insights to sustain my career and take it in new directions!鈥�
