Whether it is a leadership book, a healthcare book, a business book, a biography, or even a self-help book, which book has had the most profound effect on the way you have become a leader or your leadership philosophy?

What did you learn from that book?

Would you recommend that book to others?

Do you know of any book that should be read by every healthcare leader?

Whether it is a healthcare leadership book, a leadership book, or a self help book, which book has had the most profound effect on the way you have become a leader or your leadership philosophy?

• What did you learn from that book?
• Would you recommend that book to others?
• Do you know of any book that should be read by every healthcare leader?

• What skills or knowledge did you gain primarily from professional experiences?
• Do you feel like your education prepared you well overall?
• What do you think healthcare leadership programs are missing?

Why do you think this is the biggest issue?

A few examples could include policy, financial issues, burnout, insurance, etc. The list goes on and on.

Interested in hearing from professionals in all areas of healthcare!

Today there are so many graduate level degrees which can lead to leadership roles within healthcare including a MBA, MPA, MPH, MHA, MSN, and so many more. Many of these paths could lead to similar career outcomes for professionals, but potentially with very different educations.

For those currently working in healthcare leadership, administration, or similar areas:

• What degree or degrees did you choose to pursue?
• Why did you choose this degree over all of the other options?
• If you had to go back, would you choose the same program again?

I’d especially love to hear perspectives from people working in hospitals, public health systems, nonprofit healthcare, academic medicine, and healthcare policy.
