CE Note: This Activity Has Been Approved for 10.5 CE Credits by the NASW
SSWLHC’s Leadership Institute is a unique and highly sought-after event that brings social workers together to explore and enhance our power to lead change in healthcare settings. The program is designed for current and emerging leaders, both in formal and informal roles.
Attendees who get the most from attending the Institute are social workers with at least 3-5 years of practice experience post-MSW. Some of the learning draws on participants’ own experiences.
In 12 hours over two days, using our systems perspective, excellent communication skills, and years of experience, you will learn about leadership theories, skills, challenges, and thinking through transitioning from manager to leader. The networking part of this workshop is invaluable and extends well past the two days of instruction, giving you connections that will impact your career moving forward.
After just two days, you will walk away able to:
- Demonstrate and communicate the unique role of social work leaders/leadership in health care.
- Explore your assumptions about leadership and understand your leadership styles/competencies and their strengths and weaknesses.
- Leverage newly developed core leadership to achieve specific goals within your institutions.
