Aventis Executive Certification in  Healthcare Innovation and Change Management

Few sectors have experienced the level of innovation seen in healthcare in recent years. The impact of the fourth industrial revolution has presented the sector with opportunities and challenges surrounding innovation and change management. This module explores innovation and change management in the context of healthcare. Theories and processes of innovation and change management are examined in this module. The pressures on the provision of healthcare services necessitate change management – innovation in terms of offering a means of providing greater productivity, improved patient outcomes and cost reductions at the point of delivery. Innovation and change management necessitate new ways of working and operating for healthcare systems. Sometimes these changes can be disruptive at the same time as being beneficial: healthcare professionals need to embrace new practices, and patients will be empowered to demand improved care.

This module will begin by considering mega trends such as the impact of artificial intelligence, big data, and the rise of telemedicine. The nature of innovation and its theoretical underpinnings is considered, and the role of disruptive innovation is examined. More specifically, examples of product and service innovation in the context of healthcare is reviewed. The challenges to organizations represented by innovation are considered and the role of culture is seen as a crucial factor in determining the success of innovation and change management. The importance of personalization in the delivery of healthcare solutions and the role of user experience is also considered.
