LEADERSHIP FOR PHYSICIAN EXECUTIVES

In this seminar, co-sponsored by Harvard Medical School's Department of Continuing Education and The Levinson Institute, physician-leaders examine the implications of new and different kinds of power and recognition, changes in ethics and values, and changes in relations with colleagues and others.  Participants confront problems in motivation, decision making, conflict resolution, stress, change, and the leadership dilemma of being accountable for others.

As in the On Leadership course, we ask participants to prepare a short “live” case.  They discuss these real-life cases during the seminar week in groups of six or seven, applying a powerful problem-solving model based on the concepts presented in the morning lectures.  The small-group sessions are extremely powerful learning forums, for experienced preceptors who are physicians themselves lead the groups.

Leadership for Physician Executives has been helping physicians succeed in their challenging leadership roles since 1984.  Over 2,000 physicians from around the world have found this inspired program to be one of the most valuable and rewarding seminars they have ever attended.
