Physician Leadership Coaching

CTI leverages a vast global network of expert physician leadership coaches with practical experience to deliver hands-on, results-based coaching. Our healthcare leadership coaching programs are both rigorous and highly personalized.

Working with seasoned coaching professionals, participants complete a comprehensive Personal Strategy Map to outline and guide their physician leadership training and development journey. We also interview each of our participants to assess their coaching readiness, expectations and goals. The coach provides insight, guidance and accountability to enable the participant to execute on his or her personal and organizational goals and strategies with the highest impact.

More than 50 national faculty and healthcare industry experts contribute to our program, including faculty from the University of South Florida (USF), Duke University, Emory University, Harvard University, Stanford University, the US Military Academy at West Point, Washington University in St. Louis, General Electric, Lehigh Valley Hospital, and Florida Hospital to name a few.
