Free Event: Change Management and the Concepts of New Power
This free event for ACHS members, to be held on Thursday 22 July and will focus on learning how to survive in a rapidly changing world in all health sectors. Considering the COVID-19 pandemic the principle of achieving change at scale and pace will be explained.

Conducted as a virtual webinar, it will equip you with the skills to not only manage change, but also improve the quality of care for your consumers. Most people believe that change is hard, however, given the right circumstances change at scale and pace is very achievable. Three case studies will be used to demonstrate the approach.
