ASTHO's Leadership Development Programs
ASTHO’s Leadership Institute
ASTHO’s Leadership Institute offers leadership development opportunities for state and territorial health officials at every stage of their tenure. Our program works with experts in executive leadership development, nationally recognized public health leaders, and ASTHO alumni to offer a customized learning program for governmental public health leaders.
Diverse Executives Leading in Public Health
ASTHO and the Satcher Health Leadership Institute at Morehouse School of Medicine, with support from CDC, established the Diverse Executives Leading in Public Health (DELPH) program. This program increases participants’ visibility and exposure in public health systems, provides them with access to key professional networks, and offers leadership development opportunities.
The program is comprised of public health professionals who self-identify from an underrepresented group, including people of color, people with disabilities, women, and LGBTQ+ individuals.
Boundary Spanning Leadership
ASTHO is pleased to be able to offer Boundary Spanning Leadership workshops to members with our in-house training facilitators. These workshops cover three overarching strategies along with six boundary spanning practices. Together, these approaches combine to create what the Center for Creative Leadership calls the Nexus Effect—the limitless possibilities and results that groups can realize together, which far exceed what they can achieve on their own.
