Recognizing the pivotal role physicians will play in determining the future success of Northeast Georgia Health System (NGHS), the executive team turned to
The Leadership Development Group to customize its nationally recognized Applied Physician Leadership Academy (APLA). Thirty high-potential physician leaders were chosen to be part of the inaugural program with the goal of developing their leadership prowess to execute on the most important strategic priorities for the system, enhance patient satisfaction and physician engagement, and align around a singular leadership development philosophy and program across the system.
"There is no doubt our APLA will engage, align, and develop physician leaders system-wide as change agents to support NGHS in achieving its strategic goals," said Carol Burrell, President & CEO, NGHS. "We believe our partnership with The Leadership Development Group and focus on developing our physician leaders will help promote and strengthen collaborative relationships between our physician, nurse, and administrative leaders." "We selected The Leadership Development Group because of their track record for producing lasting results through their highly customized approach to leadership development," said Dr. Clifton Hastings, recent past Chief of Staff, NGHS. The physician leaders selected for this program represent a cross-section of high potential, high-performing leaders, diverse in gender, race, ethnicity, age, range of tenure, and hospital location from across NGHS.
