Opening Keynote
Penny Kechagioglou Chief Clinical Information Officer and Deputy Chief Medical Officer University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire (UHCW) NHS TrustAs a senior Oncology physician, Clinical and Medical director, I bring extensive experience and a diverse portfolio of Strategic Planning, Organisational Leadership, Clinical and Corporate Governance, Digital Transformation, Research and Innovation strategy, to support healthcare organisations to realise and manage change.
Leveraging my experience in the public, private and charitable healthcare sectors, I possess a unique understanding of the relationship between those entities and how they interact in an Integrated Care System, in order to achieve shared purpose and societal benefits.
My research work and interest is in Innovation processes and Leadership enablers within healthcare organisations. Individual, organisational and system leadership behaviours have a profound effect on the success of Innovation adoption and diffusion within Integrated Care Systems. This work inspired me to train further as a Coach with specialism in Health and Wellbeing, Positive Psychology and Functional Medicine, with a vision to support people and organisations to achieve their goals and be the best they can possibly be. -
