Developing Healthcare Leaders

As the healthcare marketplace and regulatory environment continue to shift dramatically, this regional hospital system also faced a looming leadership vacuum. Many of its leaders were approaching retirement and there were few internal candidates ready to step into those roles. Gus Prestera and his team were hired to implement a process for reviewing the existing leadership talent, identifying development opportunities, and putting development plans in place. As leaders engaged in the process and used the tools, they slowly began to develop a culture of development, where leaders and their employees are continually engaged in conversations around their current competencies and those needed to achieve their career goals.
