Pinpoint your leadership strengths and develop strategies for professional and personal growth.
Your ability to lead has never been more critical or more marketable than now. Rapid changes in healthcare markets and organizations
demand leaders with vision, and the talent and skills to influence others in realizing that vision. Pinpoint your leadership strengths and
develop strategies for professional and personal growth at ACHE’s Executive Leadership Development Program. The program combines
group exercises with lectures, skill assessments and confidential individual coaching sessions to give you valuable and enlightening
information about your personal style, your leadership ability and decision-making skills and your impact on others.
You will:
- Identify your leadership strengths and
development needs within the wide range
of leadership approaches available to you.
- Sharpen your observational skills to
improve group and one-on-one communications
and to identify and resolve interpersonal
and organizational conflict.
- Practice new skills in a secure environment
where you will receive immediate,
confidential feedback.
- Develop your personal leadership philosophy
through introspection and interaction
with other participants.
Assessments and Feedback
The program’s main focus is on improving participants’
leadership abilities. Approximately eight weeks prior to
the program, you will be sent and asked to complete
a set of assessments before the program begins. Some
are self-assessments; others are multi-rater questionnaires
that are to be completed by the participants and their
subordinates, peers and superiors. Program faculty will
use the information obtained from these assessments
to construct your personal profile. Using your profile,
faculty will provide confidential feedback during the
program to help you formulate an individualized leadership
development plan to increase your effectiveness. This
comprehensive set of assessments is an integral part of
the Executive Leadership Development Program and
is a requirement for participation. As this program is
highly customized to your individual leadership profile,
participants can expect to devote approximately
2.5 to 3 hours to complete a series of assessments in
preparation for the program.

The Executive Leadership Development Program is designed for healthcare executives who play a primary role in providing
