A UCSF Health Network Program
We are no longer accepting applications for the 2023 UCSF Health Executive Leadership Academy. Watch for the announcement for next year's program!
This is a nine-month hybrid program that will allow you to understand your strengths and opportunities, learn new techniques to motivate others, appreciate employee needs and help you develop the competence and talents to drive productivity and success.
The program will feature UCSF and key partner CEOs, CSOs, COOs, CFOs, CMOs, Department Chairs, Chief Academic Officers, and invited speakers from business schools and other leadership institutes. The program's overall objective is to develop visionary and nurturing leaders within the wider UCSF Health universe who would contribute to our mission success within our framework of diversity, equity and inclusion.
This program is open to current and future leaders among the UCSF faculty and members of the UCSF Affiliates Network.
Please reach out to Seth Mahoney, [email protected], with any questions about the program.
Overview
UCSF Health is a complex, large health system that is consistently ranked among the top 10 hospital systems in the United States. It has multiple hospitals and locations across the Bay Area. Over the last 5 years, it transitioned from a medical center and health system to a wide-ranging Health Network. This large, multi-location and multi-specialty organization and its partner organizations spans a wide range of health care services. Such a multifaceted network needs a robust and deep pipeline of physician and administrative leaders who understand the wider UCSF organization, the intricacies of modern medicine including its challenges and are able to inspire and lead UCSF Health to greater success in an increasingly competitive environment.
