Support Leaders Through Dialogue and Engagement
Network Partners’ Roundtables - Members Only
Network Partner Roundtables occur twice a year where leaders gather at a system level on their leadership challenges (using Chatham House Rule), opportunities and hear project updates. Meeting materials (Network Partners only) can be found below for the last three years.

Executive Roundtables
CHLNet’s Executive Roundtables are one-hour sessions for senior leaders to discuss “what inspires you” and “your leadership challenges”. One executive leader per organization is invited (i.e. CEO, Executive Director, Chief Nursing, Chief Medical Officer, or VP level) to partake in a candid conversation using Chatham House Rule. Highlight briefs are created from these sessions for educational purposes.
Highlights:
World Health Leadership Network (WHLNet)
The purpose of this network is for global collaboration and to address shared challenges by healthcare leaders around the globe. The events will be engaging, interactive sessions, with an opportunity for participants to be involved in discussions looking at a chosen theme from different national perspectives globally.

The session drew on insights from the September 2024 ISQua conference session and focused on the leadership challenges of implementing the WHO’s 2021-2030 Global Patient Safety Action Plan. For further detail a briefing note was prepared as pre-reading.
The session focused on the Implications of AI in Healthcare Leadership—a timely and evolving topic.
This session explored the challenges health care leaders face when navigating both large “P” politics (government policies, elections, regime changes) and small “p” politics (organizational and community dynamics) that shape leadership effectiveness.
Our distinguished panel—Dr Mike Durkin (UK), Dr Susan Moffatt-Bruce (USA), and Dr Debashis Basu (South Africa)—moderated by Bill Tholl (Canada), shared firsthand experiences and leadership strategies for managing these complexities.
This session focused on current and emerging healthcare challenges, exploring how leaders are responding and adapting strategically to complex issues in healthcare.
While political factors explored in the broadcast on February 20 remain relevant, this event broadened the focus to explore healthcare challenges that leaders face, regardless of the political environment in which they operate. The focus shifted to the innovative leadership approaches, successes, insights, and future strategies for addressing evolving healthcare challenges internationally.
Our diverse panel included healthcare leaders from across the world, from Kenya (Lydia Okotoyi), India (Gaurav Loria), Peru (Juan Limo) and Belgium (Mathieu Louiset). All are in a positions to share unique insights about challenges in their healthcare systems and the leadership practices and processes they believe are vital for leaders to confront adversity and enhance healthcare delivery.
Towards Leadership Pathways for Health Workforce Wellness
This project prepared by a design team for CHLNet had the goal of assessing how leaders can best address worker burnout and distress at both a network and individual organizational level. A summary and published article are listed below. As well, we partnered with the Canadian Health Workforce Network on a new Health Worker Burnout Toolkit.
