Ohad Eliyahu / Founder, Innovative Edge
Close to the work.
Closer to
the people.
I’m a healthcare operations leader, change practitioner and teacher. I care about the point where an idea becomes someone’s day-to-day work.
A practical route
to this work.
Paramedicine. Programme leadership.
Healthcare operations.
My career began in paramedicine and developed through programme management and healthcare leadership.
I’ve worked across emergency services, community-based care, virtual hospital programmes and allied health. Today, my operational work includes leading unit managers and clinical educators in inpatient medicine.
That experience keeps the questions practical. What changes for the person doing the work? What is already competing for their attention? Who can resolve the decision that is holding things up?
Through Innovative Edge, I work with leaders who are asking those questions about their own initiatives. I bring advice, planning, facilitation and teaching together around the work they need to do.
The point of view
Change First.
Technology Second.
Start with a clear purpose. Understand how the work happens. Involve the people who will carry the change through. Then decide how technology can help.
It’s the approach behind my consulting, my teaching and Change First Studio.
Teaching and facilitation
Make the ideas
useful in the room.
My teaching engagements include change management education for Cenovus Energy and AI and change management sessions for healthcare groups.
I enjoy helping people work through difficult material, connect it to their context and find a practical next step.
