Creativity, Innovation, and Change Management

Fostering creativity and managing innovation are key drivers for improving healthcare delivery, a vital topic for Zambian tertiary students. This module distinguishes between creativity (generating ideas) and innovation (implementing ideas), and explores processes like brainstorming and the phases of creative development. Students will learn change management principles to overcome resistance when introducing new services, technologies, or protocols in settings such as hospitals and labs. Relevant to Zambia's push for health system innovation and digital health, this topic prepares diploma and degree learners for exam questions on leadership adaptability and equips them to lead transformative projects, secure funding (e.g., through initiatives like the National Innovation Initiative), and enhance the quality and efficiency of healthcare services in their future careers.
