Everyone is a Leader with Alain Doucet

In this episode of Central Line: Leadership in Healthcare, host Leah Wuitschik speaks with Alain Doucet, outgoing President and CEO of the Canadian College of Health Leaders (CCHL). Alain reflects on his journey leading the organization, highlighting his experiences building a strong organizational culture, navigating challenges like the pandemic, and expanding the understanding of leadership across healthcare roles. They discuss the importance of fostering leadership in "basement dweller" roles—individuals in technical or administrative positions who may not traditionally view themselves as leaders—and how doing so improves outcomes for patients and communities.
