GPA LECTURE COURSES

In this course, students will work independently and in teams to learn and apply theories and best practices in health care leadership and advocacy. This course will use a health equity case study as a frame for students to practice key skills and propose their own multidisciplinary and multistakeholder solutions. Students in this course will be able to 1) Identify and critically analyze the intersecting legal, healthcare, social, economic and other factors underlying a particular health equity problem; 2) Identify the actors and stakeholders affected by the health equity problem and map their roles, interests, and relationships to one another; 3) Articulate key stakeholders' views of the problem after engaging in active listening; 4) Develop or critically analyze an intervention or strategy which leverages law, policy, or legal systems/workforce to address a health equity problem; 5) Identify the features of a well-functioning team within a broader coalition needed to advance an intervention/strategy and articulate one's professional role and responsibility within that team; 6) Identify ethical and cultural issues arising in interprofessional work with diverse teams; 7) Develop a communication strategy tailored to specific audiences, identifying appropriate tools/messages for that audience,such as narrative, shared values, logic models, business case, etc.
