The Academy for Transformative Health Care Leadership
Course Features
The Academy for Transformative Health Care Leadership brings together experts from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and Carey Business School to deliver a groundbreaking new leadership development experience for clinicians and health care professionals. More than leadership training, the Academy offers personal transformation for those readying themselves to reshape health systems and improve outcomes in health at scale.
Led by Johns Hopkins experts in health care leadership and the business of health care, the program includes two three-day residencies at the Carey Business School campuses in Baltimore and Washington, DC, along with virtual learning experiences, group leadership coaching and networking opportunities.
Today’s health care environment is volatile, complex, and pressurized—with massive potential for change and expanded impact. To navigate this dynamic landscape the need for leaders who can align strategy with care delivery has never been greater. Participants will leave the program with a deep understanding of the healthcare ecosystem's structural impact on organizational success and the skills necessary for effective decision-making and organizational transformation within the complex and evolving healthcare ecosystem.
Message from Director
“We collaborated to design a health care leadership program with curriculum to raise leadership skills towards the executive level. We do this through a marriage of precision professional skill development from leading business school faculty with health care focused case studies from the lived experiences of seasoned health care leaders. Our aim is to create an experience that will lead to personal, organizational, and health care system level transformation.”
