WHA President and CEO Eric Borgerding kicks off the 2023 Health Care Leadership Academy.
The second annual WHA Health Care Leadership Academy kicked off on Feb. 21 with a three-day in-person event at the Fluno Center in Madison.
Eleven participants in the five-month program were greeted by WHA President and CEO Eric Borgerding, who provided words of encouragement and vision from his 36 years of experience. “Each of you brings a different set of skills, experience and education to this program. However, what you all have in common is that you represent the future of Wisconsin hospitals. Our hope is that this leadership academy will contribute to your success in your current and future roles.”
The three-day session covered a wide range of health care management topics: The Business of Health Care: Leadership, Strategy and Understanding the Business; Understanding and Navigating Ethical Issues in Health Care; and Relationship Management: Communication and Influence Across a Matrix. Participants discussed the ethics of health care and challenges leaders face in health care and took part in an interactive simulation related to the business of health care.
