Digital Competencies for Health Service Managers: Empirical Findings and Systemic Implications | Online

The Australasian College of Health Service Management is grateful to be able to welcome Mark Brommeyer AFCHSM CHM, Senior Lecturer in Health Care Management, Flinders University as our guest speaker for the ACHSM College live webcast 2025 series.

Amidst the global backdrop of digitally transforming enterprises, a research project has been completed that aimed to identify the competencies required for health service managers (HSMs) in managing and enabling digital transformation within the Australian healthcare context, and organisational level strategies in contributing to the development of HSMs’ competency and capability.

The study adopted a qualitative approach, guided by the empirically validated management competency identification process, employing three steps: (1) health management and digital health competency mapping; (2) scoping review of literatures and policy analysis; and (3) focus group discussions (FGDs) with HSMs. The first two steps informed the design of the FGDs.

This presentation will provide empirical insights into the HSM workforce readiness and development needs for digital health, and recommendations regarding the healthcare system, policy, organisational, and local factors supporting HSMs in enabling digital health transformation.

Throughout this live webcast you have the opportunity to submit your questions to Mark via our moderator for the live Q&A session following the main presentation, the Q&A and webcast event will be moderated by ACHSM Board Director, Prof Andrew Way AM FCHSM CHE.
