title: Lessons in leadership. Keys to success from some of corporate America's best-known leaders.
abstract: With the rapidity of change in the healthcare field, effective leadership is becoming increasingly important--for both the organizations and the people they serve. For insight on what makes a leader effective, Healthcare Executive looked to five well-known business leaders who have learned what it takes to lead and succeed in today's increasingly intricate business world. All agreed that good leadership is not the ability to analyze a balance sheet. Rather, it's the ability to manage the people side of the equation that makes a leader great and an enterprise successful.
