If you’re working to create a healthier society, you face complex challenges — including navigating systemic barriers, disparate systems and services, resource-constrained environments, and organizational silos — essential to achieving health equity, like access to healthy food and affordable housing.
We’re proud to work with public health organizations around the world to equip their teams, not only to meet these challenges, but to thrive in the face of them. Our focus is on systematically improving the health of entire populations by supporting and developing leadership skills in public health.
We adapt our approach to the unique challenges of clinicians and administrators working in this sector to advance transformational social change in communities. Many of our population health leadership initiatives are funded by partnerships with foundations for philanthropic leadership.
Whether you’re a foundation executive, state health official, community advocate, healthcare professional, or public health educator, our goal is to help strengthen leadership skills in public health so that together, we can create a healthier society for all.
Reimagining what leadership looks like and how it works is foundational to advancing real change and fostering greater leadership in public health organizations.
This process includes moving beyond the individualistic model of leadership and embracing the idea instead that leadership is a collective process; leveraging collaborative, intentional networks drawing on communities and groups that have historically been excluded from systems of power and influence; helping leaders to thrive in a fast-moving environment, learning while doing; and fostering a culture of resilience where individuals support one another with encouragement and resources from organizations and communities.
With decades of experience partnering with population health organizations, we know what it takes to develop effective leadership skills in public health. From developing nurse leaders, to designing fellowships for community health grantees, to increasing the leadership capacity of public health professionals, we have worked with a wide array of global partners to strengthen leadership skills in public health.
We offer human-centered, research-based population health leadership development programs designed for the unique environment and challenges facing individuals, organizations, and communities seeking to solve society’s most vexing health challenges.
We can partner with you to help you make investments in your leaders that give you and your community the greatest possible return on investment.
With a combination of leadership analytics, talent diagnostics, 360 assessments, and other instruments, we can do a deep dive into your leaders, your culture, your organizational priorities, and your employee engagement levels to help inform your investments in population health leadership development.
Develop a common leadership language across your organization and see long-term results.
Our standalone leadership development tools and training materials help you increase the scale and maximize the impact of your internal initiatives to strengthen leadership in public health.
Take our expertise and deliver training your way, with the convenience, flexibility, and independence you want — and the support you need.
We offer a variety of research-based, proven leadership topic modules to help you upskill your team.
Build a long-term outlook for success and combat burnout on your team with a practical yet scientific approach that will help your leaders build both individual and organizational resilience.
We can deliver our world-class content on Resilience-Building — or you can. Either way, our content will equip your team to survive and even prosper through unprecedented challenges.
At CCL, we measure success by lives touched and impact made. That’s why the organizations we work with and the leaders we transform consistently tell us the same thing: their experience with us is a game-changer. These organizations’ investments in public health leadership have impacted thousands of leaders in hundreds of communities.
But don’t just take our word for it – take theirs.
“I have learned that you can become a stronger leader for your organization and community through dedicated attention to certain actions. This role as a leader is not about your job title but is about the impact you make and what you inspire in others.”

Ladder to Leadership: Developing the Next Generation of Community Healthcare Leaders
“This program has been life-changing for me. When I first started, I considered myself what I would call a hesitant leader. I’ve been given so many tools to help me make change in my practice, support my staff, be a better healthcare provider for our community, and continue to improve my leadership skills.”
