MSH LMRP Outcome Harvesting Evaluation Report

The global response to the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the critical role of effective leadership in addressing public health threats. Decision-makers faced challenges in prioritizing needs, rapid decision-making, clear communication, resource mobilization, stakeholder engagement, data utilization, and adaptation. In response, the Leading and Managing for Results in Pandemics (LMRP) program was developed, offering a data-driven improvement process to enhance public health emergency preparedness, response, and recovery. This 14-15 week program, delivered through a blend of digital and in-person learning, was customized for teams of health workers in Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, Peru, Rwanda, and Uganda, facilitating effective leadership and management practices to mobilize stakeholders and utilize local resources within the health system’s response to COVID-19 and related public health threats from February 2022 to April 2023.
