"Today more than ever, physicians find themselves working in groups: clinically and group practices; administratively with health systems, payors, or as consultants; and finally in policy and management. [This book] is a primer that correctly avers personal values to be the bedrock of success as one progresses from group member to leader. A personal value system consistent with the culture of the organization is absolutely necessary for personal success. Physicians would do well to understand and heed the information put forth by Carson Dye."
—Donald L. Mellman, MD, Tampa, Florida
