This practical and evidence-based guide offers the seven key domains of effective healthcare leadership and explains what it will take to develop leaders for an evolving healthcare system. Andrew Garman looks at both the major changes facing healthcare organizations and the leadership competencies required to successfully meet those challenges. He offers a glimpse into our more distant future and how our health systems--and the demands of leaders--could evolve. He also explains how people become more effective leaders over time and what the research has to say about what works best in making this happen. Garman introduces the seven primary disciplines associated with effective leadership- values, health system literacy, self-development, relations, execution, boundary-spanning, and transformation. Each discipline is rooted in research on leadership effectiveness, including studies conducted with the National Center for Healthcare Leadership. He also provides additional tools and resources to help people on their leadership journey.
"The American healthcare system of the future will be built increasingly on the strengths of teams, not individuals--an environment where everyone will be a leader.

The book also contains valuable content and reminders for seasoned executives. " --Thomas M.
