One of the hallmarks of the Harvard Macy Institute is the energy and enthusiasm of our alumni community. Collaborations begun during the annual programs routinely extend back to home institutions, where newly hatched ideas and strategies developed during the programs often flourish and become innovations. The LinkedEd section of our website is designed to help foster that process by providing our alumni community with a wide range of interactive resources, tools, and ways to stay connected -- to the Institute, to the changing world we all work in, and to each other.

On the Leading Innovations Program, "I attended the meeting after having already been involved in several innovations around the development of new medical schools in 4 countries, sometimes at leadership level, and so was more experienced than some other attendees. However, I still found the meeting to be very useful. I was able to immerse myself for a week in other kinds of thinking and encouraged to consider how to translate concepts into medical education. The small group exercises allowed us to discuss the meaning of other models and theories and to merge, translate and develop potentially new ways of approaching familiar tasks. Group membership was deliberately diverse, so I was constantly having to think about things from the perspectives of different levels of experience and different health and education systems. For me the main benefit came in the weeks after the meeting, as I returned to my usual job but continued to reflect on the discussions during the meeting and thought throughways of applying what I had learned. I have since changed the way I work by increasing my focus on leading, rather than implementing, change."
