Institutional Resilience Mentorship Models for Health Logistics Leaders

 Institutional Resilience: Mentorship Models for Health Logistics Leaders

Capturing Tacit Knowledge and Building Leadership Pipelines to Counter Brain Drain

By Gabula Sadat

Is This Book for You?

This book is written for policy makers, government officials, NGO administrators, health system leaders, and emerging professionals who are committed to strengthening health supply chains and ensuring that critical knowledge doesn't walk out the door when experienced staff retire or move on.

Why This Book Matters

In health logistics, the most valuable asset isn't equipment or inventory—it's people. Yet across developing nations and even established health systems, the departure of seasoned professionals creates dangerous gaps in institutional memory. When experienced leaders leave, they take with them decades of hard-won wisdom, contextual understanding, and problem-solving instincts that can't be found in any manual.

Brain drain isn't just a human resources problem—it's a threat to public health.
