SHM's 











Leadership













Academy
Purpose

SHM's Leadership Academies are designed to provide hospitalist leaders with the skills and resources required to successfully lead and manage a hospital medicine program now and in the future.

Our expert faculty have created a program that benefits both physician and non-physician providers by covering vital topics such as overcoming leadership challenges, effectively advocating a hospitalist program, improving patient outcomes and so much more.

Registration is limited to allow for personalized discussions in small group sessions and constantly sells out. Reserve your spot today - see "Registration Information" on right.
