New Leadership Needed to Address Evolving Health Opportunities

As the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation marks its 40th year, we look toward the future to identify how to speed improvements in health and health care for all Americans:

Young Leader Awards: Nomination Deadline July 16—RWJF Young Leader Awards will recognize leaders who have demonstrated the characteristics necessary to provide leadership for improving health and health care in the future. Up to 10 awards will be given to young leaders, 40 and under, who offer great promise for leading the way to improved health and health care. Each winner will receive an individual award of $40,000. To view the call for nominations and information about criteria and nomination requirements, go to RWJFyoungleaderawards.org.

Symposium on Health in the Year 2032—RWJF and the Institute for Alternative Futures convened health leaders last week for an intensive two-day look into the future via scenario modeling. Leadership was identified as a key ingredient to tackle challenges and build on opportunities over the next 20 years.

The group identified four key opportunities on the horizon:

  • Develop new health roles beyond traditional medical care professionals and public health providers;
  • Focus the health-tech sector on developing community health metrics;
  • Cultivate new leadership for a healthy society; and
  • Remove barriers to achieve better health outcomes and quality.

A report to the nation about how to plan now to improve health across the next two decades will be released by the Institute for the Future in fall 2012.
