Strengthening Leadership and Partnerships in Health Services

Managing health services depends on people working well together. Guiding teams through change and developing cooperation with communities were central themes of the fourth module of the Health Management Training (HMT) programme.

The two-day module addressed management and leadership, exploring their role in the organisation of health services. Sessions on change management and effective teams focused on how managers can support colleagues as they adapt to new approaches and responsibilities.

The second day extended this focus to teamwork and partnerships. Alongside cooperation in the workplace, the agenda gave particular attention to partnerships with communities, recognising their importance in connecting health services with the people they serve.

The Association of Family Physicians of Kosovo delivers the six-module programme with support from the AQH Project and accreditation from the Kosovo Chamber of Doctors. By taking responsibility for its delivery, the Association helps sustain access to health management training and carries forward the capacities developed through AQH’s investment.
