Health Informatics is an ever evolving, changing and dynamic field that has become the disruptive innovation shaping the future of healthcare. Health informaticians face a number of challenges in the workplace such as gaining acceptance and recognition from other healthcare providers and overcoming the resistance of healthcare providers from using technology in clinical practice. Being a health informatician is not for the faint hearted, especially as resistance to the role of health informaticians continues from both healthcare providers and hospital administrators. As health informaticians move from behind the scenes to the front line of todays modern healthcare organization, more leadership training is needed for health informaticians in dealing with the changing demands of the healthcare industry and rapid changes in technology innovations. Waking up everyday with the same passion and purpose to lead others and drive change within healthcare organizations requires the health informatician to find the internal passion that will be transformed into external actions guiding the health informatician in how they lead, communicate, work, think, and treat others within the workplace. The purpose of this paper is to help health informaticiains tap into and develop their passion for the field of health informatics so that they can lead with purpose to improve how healthcare is practiced and delivered, making a lasting change in the overall healthcare system.
