In the current environment, leadership in healthcare requires more than understanding clinical medicine or financial/business strategy. The successful organization will be led by those who are fluent in healthcare, business, policy and efficiency engineering; thus understanding of the nuances of how efficient, cost-effective, evidence-based care is provided and how to synthesize and apply strategies from all disciplines. The UKHealthCare Executive Leadership development program is a huge first step in contemplating this journey.
