As public health practitioners, we should be the ultimate dot-connectors, capable of seeing opportunities for new collaborations and functioning as effective task executers on projects that often require a diverse array of partners.  This Learning Institute was designed to help practitioners not only see the dots (something you probably learned in school), but also understand how your leadership (something you may not have spent as much time on yet) impacts your work.

Learning Areas:

Systems thinking models (conceptual and theoretical models), applications related to public health

Learning Objectives:
Describe developments in social determinants of health collaboration Identify the skills necessary that make a competitive job applicant Assess you own network development and collaborative opportunities
