Transforming Healthcare: Leadership for Innovation and Impact

Healthcare is undergoing a seismic transformation with digital technologies, AI, and new models of care reshaping how services are delivered and how outcomes are measured. But to lead successfully through this change, technical innovation must be matched with visionary, adaptive leadership.
In this short, engaging session, we introduce the Oxford Healthcare Leadership Programme, a globally recognised executive education experience designed to help senior healthcare leaders navigate complexity, lead across systems, and innovate with purpose.
Delivered by the University of Oxford’s Saïd Business School in collaboration with global healthcare experts, this programme brings together professionals from across the sector to rethink leadership, build strategic capabilities, and design more human-centred, effective healthcare systems.

Key Takeaways:

• Explore how the programme equips healthcare leaders to drive strategic change, innovate responsibly, and build resilience within their organisations.
• Learn how systems thinking, personal leadership development, and cross-sector collaboration are embedded into the Oxford experience.
• Understand who the programme is for — and how it supports clinicians, managers, and innovators stepping into wider leadership roles.
• Hear examples of real-world impact from past participants: from national health policy transformation to service redesign and digital health integration.
• Leave with a clear picture of how this programme could help you or your healthcare leaders step into a more strategic, systems-level role.

This session is for... healthcare professionals, clinicians, researchers, and innovation leaders working in hospitals, healthcare systems, med-tech, digital health, or life sciences who are leading change or influencing strategy in a complex, fast-evolving environment.
