YEAR-END ROUNDUP: What We’ve Learned in Our Leadership Quest
The past year has been an amazing opportunity for all Trinity Health leaders to gather together in one room to celebrate our successes as a team, address difficulties and challenges, and grow into more capable and confident leaders.
We’ve experienced the power of sharing ideas, uniting around a common vision, and working together to innovate and discover a better way.
As we wrap up 2022, we want to take a moment to celebrate YOU. We are so proud of the hard work and effort you’re putting in to improve your leadership skills, help develop your team through coaching and rounding, and invest in your own personal resilience and well-being.
We can’t wait to continue learning and growing with you in 2023 and watch you lead Trinity Health through the innovation of the century with the opening of the HCMD.
Check out everything you’ve accomplished as a united leadership team with this year-end roundup and dive back in to any lessons you want to revisit in preparation for this coming year-
“Triannual” All-Leader Workshops
Triannual workshops are our opportunity to bring all Trinity Health leadership to the table to be re-energized, realigned, and resourced for the challenges facing our team each day. We learn the best tools and resources to support our Leadership Quest and go deep with real-time exercises to create solutions infused with the knowledge and expertise of the Trinity Health Team.
Here’s an overview of everything we learned together as a leadership team this year:
TRIANNUAL I: Leadership + Resilience (April)
In this first Triannual workshop, we set the stage for our Leadership Quest – rethinking what it is to be a leader and realigning all leaders at Trinity Health around four core focus areas: Resilience, Engagement, Experience, and Innovation. We worked through the unique challenges of the past few years and cast a vision for opening the HCMD as a re-energized and transformed Trinity.

TRIANNUAL III: Innovation (November)
In this Triannual workshop, we worked through Leading through Change and Innovation and gained numerous tools and frameworks for communicating change to our team. We discussed how we as leaders can help overcome resistance to change and prepare for Trinity Health’s largest change and innovation in a century—the new Healthcare Campus and Medical District (HCMD) opening this spring.

Leadership Roundtables
Leadership Roundtables are monthly insights from leading industry experts on subjects that help enhance our Leadership Quest.
