Why This Program

Many not-for-profit and academic health systems provide excellent leadership training for their key executives focusing on strategy, innovation, finances, corporate restructuring, improving revenue cycle and supply chain operations, mergers and acquisitions, clinician burn-out, social determinants of health, and so on. Leadership competencies in these areas are important, which begs the question: Why should you attend the Developing Trusted & Effective Leaders program?

The short answer is we focus on the critical competency of leadership itself. That is, how to become a more effective and trusted leader who will create positive, significant, and lasting change in your organization and in healthcare generally.

Furthermore, we do so in a manner that cannot be duplicated in an in-house course. The Developing Trusted Leaders program is designed as a capstone leadership development experience to augment healthcare institutions’ own leadership development programs.

"This program is truly different... Thank you for showing me what it means to be a Trusted Leader, an Inspiration Leader! I know now what kind of leader I want to be and I will be. I will continue to craft my [personal] brand and bring it to life. I have learned so many exceptional skills and takeaways that I am truly a changed person... Thank you!" 
-Francis A. Gott, MBA, RRT, Christiana Care Health System
