Leadership involves the acquisition and proper use of certain business skills. There is little argument that your knowledge and skill about money is essential to your performance. In today’s healthcare environment a leader needs to be in control of the resources of the organization and one of the most important resources is money.
Another essential skill is negotiation. At all levels of healthcare, physicians are already involved in daily negotiation. Learning to do it right will be essential in your ability to get things done and improve the care being delivered to your patients.
