As the healthcare delivery system continues to evolve, so do some of
the key leadership competencies required of healthcare executives.
Taking the time to focus on your career plan, steering your organization through waves of change and cultivating future leaders are
all valuable skills that will drive professional success in this new era
of healthcare.
our cover story, “managing Your career in Transformative Times”
(pages 10–18), identifies the imperative to focus on career development despite other demands. Identifying your personal values, striving
for a mutually beneficial relationship with your organization and
acclimating to a more collaborative style of leadership can lead to personal and organizational growth.
“Generation Now: The New era of leadership” (pages 20–28)
explores the importance of preparing current and future healthcare
executives for sustainable success. Through effective workforce planning, as demonstrated in three case studies, organizations can produce
results even during this time of industry flux.
our special feature, “Aspirations of a Servant leader” (pages 30–38),
builds on a keynote address given by AcHe’s president emeritus,
Thomas c. dolan, Phd, FAcHe, FASAe, at the 2013 congress on
Healthcare leadership. dolan stresses the importance of servant leadership and the challenges he faced while striving to be a servant leader
during his 22 years as president and ceo of AcHe.
