Be Well

The AHA Physician Alliance connects clinicians with resources and experiences framed by three fundamental values: Lead Well, Be Well and Care Well. These values foster shared decision-making and forge a common language among all health care leaders.

Be Well is about improving the health of clinicians. The Alliance offers immersion experiences to address resilience, a growing in-depth knowledge hub with research, insights, assessment tools and interviews with leaders addressing burnout in their organizations.

AHA Leadership Experience

Increasing demands on physician and administrative leaders have created an epidemic of burnout. AHA Leadership Experience helps participants create a new professional strategy to offset the demands of the 24/7/365, fast-paced and unrelenting health care environment. Participants develop a powerful new ability to create new skills, patterns and rituals that intentionally create equilibrium between the competing dimensions of their lives. Participants learn to elevate their personal leadership in every aspect of their lives, which allows them to regain control of what is foundationally core, and what truly matters most in their life and work.
