International Leadership Development: A Workshop for Academicians and Practitioners in Punjab, India


Monday, November 4, 2013 : 4:30 p.m. - 4:45 p.m.

Joyce Gaufin, BS, CPM, APHA Past President, Dammeron Valley, UT

     
Developing leaders for the public's health is a priority both nationally and internationally. Directors from two regional leadership development programs in the U.S. (the Regional Institute for Health and Environmental Leadership, Denver, CO; the Great Basin Public Health Leadership Institute, Salt Lake City, UT) were invited to create and deliver a leadership development seminar for the School of Public Health, PGIMER, in Chandigarh, India. This was done in collaboration with faculty and staff from the University of Utah, Department of Family & Preventive Medicine, Public Health Division. This presentation will discuss potential differences or similarities for providing core leadership competency training to a U.S. audience vs. a similar audience in India.

Learning Areas:

Conduct evaluation related to programs, research, and other areas of practice
Diversity and culture
Implementation of health education strategies, interventions and programs
Planning of health education strategies, interventions, and programs

Learning Objectives:
Describe examples of core leadership competencies that are common to both national and international leadership development programs. Discuss the benefit for providing culturally appropriate leadership training.
