Futures Musters workshops are a key to the Focus on the Future Workforce Initiative. Futures Musters engages current and emerging leaders across the NSW health system and facilitates a creative space to think curiously and innovatively about the future of work and the NSW Health workforce.
We have hosted 13 Futures Musters since 2019. The workshop topics are chosen to support future thinking and strategic planning for the NSW Health workforce. Past topics include technology and scientific innovation, consumer-led care and population changes. We are currently designing new Futures Musters by working with stakeholders to identify topics that support readiness in our current and future workforce.

Innovation is always emerging across NSW Health as we imagine new and better ways to deliver patient care. Our challenge is to create and support a culture and infrastructure that enables ongoing innovation.
Leading for Innovation (L4I) is a leadership development program aimed at enhancing knowledge, skills, mindsets and actions to nurture innovation and leadership capabilities within the NSW Health workforce.
Using a flipped classroom approach, L4I engages talented leaders in an immersive learning experience to cultivate 16 innovation and leadership skills and instincts through a mix of learning formats including workshops, online self-directed learnings, group work and coaching.
L4I equips participants with new ways of thinking, tools to engage with people, how to generate insights, how to help break barriers, and how to apply out-of-the-box thinking for challenging situations.
