Academy Overview

WHCA/WiCAL has designed this Leadership Academy for the unique needs and demands of health care professionals. Professionals at any stage of their career are invited to join this cohort-based model for an immersive experience unlike other training and development opportunities you may have experienced. The cohort will engage in the exploration of fundamental leadership skills and behaviors, and then apply learning in the workplace as “homework”. In addition to growing confidence, personal efficiency and effectiveness will emerge. The need for strong leadership in long term care has never been greater. We have a choice: we can hope that someone else will step in to fill the void and solve the problems that hinder our performance – OR – we take responsibility for our own future and narrow the gap between our performance and personal potential. Leadership is a choice.
