Abstract:
Building a community of practice for leadership requires more than formal training - it must be ongoing, adaptive, and rooted in real-world experience. St. Joseph's Care Group in Northwestern Ontario launched an innovative Leadership ECHO (Extension for Community Health Outcomes) Project to foster such development. Engaging leaders across all levels (chief executive officer to managers) and departments, the initiative emphasized collaboration and non-hierarchical learning. This approach integrated leadership knowledge into daily work, offering tools and support to navigate the complexities of healthcare. The project proved to be a transformative platform, strengthening leadership capacity, building community and connections and serving as a model for sustainable, contextual leadership development.
