Transformational leadership approach for encouraging historically marginalized communities to access admission to Naturopathic Medicine
Many healthcare training institutions lack cultural diversity, including naturopathic medicine. One potential reason is a lack of historically marginalized individuals applying to these medical schools. Attracting communities of colour to healthcare professions, like naturopathic medicine is important for improving healthcare access and delivery across all individuals within North America. This OIP explores the lack of diversity in applicants to the naturopathic medical program at a large multi-centre institution. The role that education and mentorship of faculty members can play to improve implicit biases and eventually encourage historically marginalized individuals to apply to the program is explored. Moreover, the OIP presents a plan using informal leadership with a transformational approach to motivate change including the practices of exemplary leadership. Also, the plan is outlined and communicated using the CPM, which includes a process for the practice of transformational leadership. Tracking success and challenges within the OIP are detailed in the monitoring and evaluation framework, which includes a self-assessment of biases and SWOT analysis. This process would eventually lead to a shift within the faculty’s culture, the effects of which could be widespread
Indigenous African-Centred Organizational Change: Building Capacity at a Grassroots B3 Organization
Nakupenda Community Services (NCS) is a B3 organization based in Ontario Canada. At NCS there are several valuable programs serving the everyday needs of clients. While the services are valued by the community, the internal challenge within the organization is the lack of capacity to lead all programs. Compounding this problem is the demand for more programs and services given the impacts of the recent pandemic. The very active board of directors and employees have made significant efforts to meet the needs of clients, but the problem of capacity persists and negatively impacts service delivery as employees and leaders tend to experience burnout which therefore impacts the retention rate at the organization. The problem of practice being investigated is the lack or organizational capacity to meet outcome expectations at NCS. While funding plays a major role in the lack of human capital the organization possesses, three potential solutions were identified and a merging of two key solutions was selected as the best approach for this Organizational Improvement Plan (OIP). This solution reduces the number of programs being facilitated by the organization and ensures that the programs that remain are managed and lead effectively. To supplement the program reduction, the active participation in a network of Black organizations, identified as a Black ecosystem, is established. Developed through an Indigenous African-centred lens, Ubuntu and highlighting the principles of the Nguzo Saba framework (unity, self-determination, collective-work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith) collective action will achieve the improvement necessary for NCS
