So much of your work in global health is project-based. Whether you’re training healthcare workers implementing an intervention, adopting a health information system, or evaluating for quality improvement. Good project management is crucial for the success of these endeavors.
Many organizations approach their job by creating a dependent workforce — staff that will need to always depend on what they are told to get the job done. At Heartland Alliance LTD/GTE (HALG), we see things differently. Built on a simple yet powerful theory of change, at the HALG Learning Center; known as the GRAVITAS Institute, we believe that if we enable staff to build competence and cognate capacity within their roles and unit in the organization, and if we support workforce development, using more sophisticated and nuanced, approaches, the organization can leverage greater internal capacity. Knowledge transfer and capacity building through training, coaching, and skills training are at the heart of what we do. It is a partnership that provides value for all concerns.
