[WEBINAR] Health care companies spend billions on leadership development to help physicians, nurse leaders and staff professionals become more effective managers. Unfortunately, research shows that most leadership development is ineffective when not tailored to business strategy.

Attendees will learn to build leadership development into daily work schedules, match leadership development strategies to the needs of individual leaders, and build leadership programs around what it will take to make their business successful.
