Healthcare (PDF)

The health care sector is in the midst of great change: the Baby Boomers are retiring, ethno-cultural diversity is increasing with new waves of immigration, and the private sector is knocking loudly at the public services door. Furthermore, technology is rapidly changing everything from the range of services provided by health care facilities, to the time patients spend in hospitals, through to assisting the emergence of an internet-informed citizenry. All of this is happening in a political and economic context of increased demands of the health care sector with decreased resources. Anima Leadership offers unique programs that assist health care leaders in navigating this time of transition with focus areas in effective leadership, diversity and cultural competence as well as specific skill-building programs.

“The next step… is to transform Medicare into a system that is more responsive, comprehensive and accountable to all Canadians. Getting there requires leadership… It requires health practitioners to challenge the traditional way they have worked in the system.”

Roy Romanow, The Future of Healthcare in Canada Report, 2002

"Shakil Choudhury from Anima Leadership delivered a diversity training workshop for the large interdisciplinary team of staff at The Four Villages Community Health Centre… We were impressed with his depth of knowledge and experience… and his ability to lead a large group of diverse staff in experiential learning activities and link those with theoretical frameworks to provide structure and basis for the information."
