Restoring the 'System' in Our Health System | Anne-Marie Parent | TEDxMechanicsville
Our health system is broken because we treat it like a machine—fixing isolated parts instead of addressing the bigger picture. By focusing on connections, embracing diverse perspectives, and adapting to change, we can create a system that truly supports well-being. The question is: what role will you play in restoring the system in our health system? Anne-Marie Parent is a manager with the Canadian Institute for Health Information and a part-time professor at the Telfer School of Management, teaching health informatics and organizational behavior & change in healthcare. Twelve years ago, she chose to focus her career in the health system, seeing an opportunity to apply her expertise in change management, systems thinking, and large-scale collaboration. She is passionate about empowering groups to embrace collective leadership to navigate the uncertainties inherent in addressing complex issues. She has served as a board member with a Community Health Centre and volunteers as a facilitator with the Systems Innovation Health Hub. A lifelong learner, she holds certifications as a Certified Health Executive, Prosci Change Management, Black Belt in Lean Healthcare, and Flow Certified Coach. She recently completed training in Organizational and Relationship Systems Coaching, furthering her commitment to supporting transformational change.
