LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS

Originally developed for the American Medical Association in 1998, our workshops address the leadership skills that are critically needed in the healthcare industry yet are not traditionally taught in medical school or business school. Using instructional material, interactive discussion and group exercises, our faculty of experts focuses on teaching innovation, creative problem solving, understanding leadership and management roles, and advanced communication skills.
