IHI Leadership Alliance Overview

​



A Dynamic, Collaborative Learning Community for Health Care Executives and Their Teams

​The Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) Leadership Alliance is a dynamic collaboration of health care executives who share a goal to work with one another as well as in partnership with our patients, workforces, and communities to deliver on the full promise of the IHI Triple Aim.

Alliance Members share generously with one another, confident that by collaborating and learning together, we can individually and collectively get better, faster.

In the early weeks of the US Coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis, IHI Leadership Alliance teams used this network to connect and share operational and clinical insights — exchanging support, emerging needs, and tactical solutions. This year, we're more committed than ever to rebuilding health care from the inside out.
