We have conducted executive leadership searches for many academic health systems including some of the most prestigious in the country over the past 10 years. Our success is a function of our execution skills and the depth and breadth of our network of relationships in both clinical and academic centers across the country. Coming from our experiences as academic leaders, we know the culture and values, and we understand the challenges that are faced by all. Our approach to candidate identification and evaluation is centered on the candidate’s learning agility and their self-awareness as key leadership attributes. Health networks like yours will demand a leader that is an intellectual and cultural fit, one who will inspire as well as act. We expect the search committee to aim high, and we have confidence we can deliver a strong and diverse pool of candidates from which to choose.
Our knowledge of the universe of healthcare draws upon relationships formed first during long careers in academic medicine and expanded in our work as search consultants. Our practice is in global in scope and includes placements of Presidents, Vice Presidents of Health Affairs, Deans of Schools of Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, and Public Health, Directors of Centers and Institutes, and Chairs of Departments.
