Preparing physicians to lead.
The University of St. Thomas' Physician Leadership College is an 18-month program that trains physicians in leadership and management. It was started in 1999 in response to calls from within the health care industry for more training of physician leaders to guide reform efforts. This article makes the case that physicians need to not only participate in but also to lead change in health care. It also describes the program and reports findings from participants' evaluations.
