Learning to Lead in the Academic Medical Center: A Practical Guide

Description:

This compelling title is a comprehensive, practical guide for current and aspiring leaders in academic medical centers (AMC).  Offering both a broad overview of the dynamics of the AMC and a detailed “how-to” set of instructions for the wide-ranging situations that demand skilled leadership, this expertly designed volume is filled with meaningful examples and insights. Learning to Lead in the Academic Medical Center: A Practical Guide consists of five parts. The first three sections are narrative and intended to help the reader become a better leader. The first section looks at the AMC as a social system and emphasizes an understanding of group dynamics. The second section discusses the critical role of personality, while the third covers all the necessary leadership skill sets such as negotiation, persuasion, conflict resolution, running a meeting, and so on. The fourth section is a fascinating series of case vignettes to solve based on the material that preceded it. The final section provides a set of highly instructional solutions to those cases. An indispensable reference authored by three highly accomplished leaders in the field, Learning to Lead in the Academic Medical Center: A Practical Guide will be of great interest to all physicians and trainees who seek a comprehensive yet handy resource on the need-to-know basics of success in the AMC environment.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-read for leaders in academic medical centers

A.C. · November 25, 2015

Jeff Houpt knows academic medical centers inside and out. He has seen successful leadership and failed leadership in a wide variety of medical centers. In this fascinating book, he and his co-authors explain the dynamics and lead the reader through how everyone can improve as a leader (and how to deal with problem leaders). Case studies with discussion bring the issues to life, and include teaching points of how the problems could be addressed. Aspiring, junior, and even senior leaders in the AMC will find this book a valuable resource.

This is a superb book, authored by three people who bring both articulate thought and considerable experience to the subject. Any department chair, dean, or VP for health affairs will be enriched and made more effective by time spent reading this book.

Excellent assessment of a medical center, thoughtful, circumspect, but offers more in the way of warning than practical, prospective advice.

A.C. · January 9, 2017

I enjoy reading leadership development books. I am currently in a leading MHA program and will serve my fellowship at a leading AMC. I have been looking for a book which focused on AMC's, and this is the best one that I have found thus far. I recommended this to other developing leaders who aspire to be strong contributors​ to their organization.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well,worth the read!

5.0 out of 5 stars This one was perfect for my development as a leader in academic medicine ...

A.C. · November 10, 2015

I have read many leadership development books. This one was perfect for my development as a leader in academic medicine - it included plenty of strong leadership theory content and also very practical background information with specific tips for that environment. Not a week goes by in my job in the Dean's office that I don't recall relevant examples. "Culture is King" and the concept of the "Village Elders" frame my approach to my work and the lessons in dealing with specific individuals help me in day-to-day operations. This book is a "how to" guide for leaders in academic medicine, and the lessons in this book can take years to learn on your own.
