  • Summary

  • After explaining her "theory of expert leadership" and its relevance to the healthcare field, Amanda Goodall shares what motivated her to create an Executive Master's program specifically tailored for physician leaders at Bayes Business School. She discusses the unique challenges and opportunities that physicians face when taking on leadership roles within healthcare organizations. The program aims to equip doctor-leaders with the essential management and leadership skills to complement their clinical expertise. Goodall emphasizes the importance of integrating leadership development into medical training and continuing education. Goodall also offers advice for physicians interested in stepping into leadership positions. When clinical mastery is combined with trained leadership skills, doctors can become tremendously effective and credible leaders capable of driving meaningful change for their teams and organizations.
