1 Share of the healthcare institution manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the clinical informatics manager profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.

Why

Why this move works

A healthcare institution manager role treats 6 of its required skills as things a clinical informatics manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

communicate in healthcare
comply with legislation related to health care
contribute to public health campaigns
implement strategic planning
manage budgets
manage healthcare staff

What stands in the way is 12 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 8 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A healthcare institution manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a clinical informatics manager background worth leading with.

Note

How this record was compiled

Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
