As the world appears to be moving from one crisis to another, it is important to take a moment and reflect on how we handle difficult situations. In times of crisis, we tend to look for guidance and inspiration to our leaders. But true leadership is rare. We are privileged to invite you to our next webinar led by our distinguished speaker Professor Jason Leitch CBE, MPH’06.
Prof. Leitch is the National Clinical Director of Healthcare Quality and Improvement and Senior Clinical Advisor to the Scottish Government. He provided key leadership throughout the response to the COVID-19 pandemic and has been praised for his ability to translate complex scientific information to the public, providing calm and clear advice.
From 2005 to 2006 he was a Quality Improvement Fellow at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, in Boston, sponsored by the Health Foundation. He qualified as a dentist in 1991 and was a Consultant Oral Surgeon in Glasgow. Prof. Leitch has a doctorate from the University of Glasgow, a Masters in Public Health from Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and is a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow and the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh.
