In health care, as in many other industries, technically proficient people are often promoted into management positions. In many cases, these individuals need additional support to become as effective at managing as they were in their technical jobs. Washington Hospital Services, a subsidiary of WSHA, is please to open registration for its popular LEAD Academy, this time offered in Elma at Summit Pacific Medical Center. The first of six sessions begins Oct. 11. Register now.
The LEAD Academy is an intensive, 12-module training experience using experiential learning. It is taught by an executive coach with more than 20 years of experience. Designed for health care supervisors and managers, LEAD is built on the underlying principle that effective leadership requires productive relationships to support excellence in patient care, sustainable business objectives and a safe patient environment. LEAD is offered in six sessions — one day per month during a six-month period — and is the perfect solution to empower recently hired, newly appointed or previously untrained health care leaders to better understand and use their strengths.
