115_Healers to Leaders: Helping Physicians Build Their Leadership Path
In this episode of the Healthcare Plus Podcast, host Dan Collard speaks with Don Taylor and Kurt Scott, co-creators of From Healer to Leader: The Path to Physician Leadership, a unique new leadership development program designed specifically for physicians.
Together, they explore why physician leadership is more essential than ever—and why so many physicians find themselves in leadership roles without the preparation or support they need. Drawing from years of experience in academic programs, military leadership, and physician career development, Don and Kurt talk about the serious gap in physician leadership training and what they’re doing to close it.
Listeners will hear:
- Why a certificate isn’t enough—and why the real outcome should be a personalized leadership plan for each physician
- What makes physicians different from other emerging leaders—and how to support them with the right level of challenge and psychological safety
- How their rolling cohort model and flexible structure honors physicians’ time while still building powerful peer connections
- Why organizations that invest in physician growth see stronger retention and better outcomes
- How leadership development is also a strategy for physician well-being and renewal
Whether you’re a physician, a hospital executive, or someone passionate about building strong clinical leaders, this episode offers smart, strategic insights into what physician leadership training should look like today—and how we can do it better.
