Abstract
COVID-19 is the latest grand challenge being faced by healthcare and the world, but it will not be the last. Training future healthcare managers to organize and collaborate across boundaries and disciplines to generate solutions for current and future grand challenges is an important goal for healthcare management programs. Drawing upon our own experience examining challenges the healthcare workforce navigated during the COVID-19 pandemic, we extracted key principles from our international collaboration and mapped them onto the National Center for Healthcare Leadership (NCHL) competency framework to demonstrate how educators may foster similar skills within their own students using a group capstone course as an example. We offer opportunities and considerations for educators to facilitate the development of student competencies that will enable future healthcare managers to lead interdisciplinary teams and address large-scale healthcare challenges.
