A recent survey conducted by the UCLA Center for Health Services Management and the Physician Executive Practice of Heidrick & Struggles, an executive search firm, sheds light on the emerging physician executive's role. The goal of the research was to identify success factors as a means of evaluating and developing effective industry leaders. Respondents were asked to look at specific skills in relation to nine categories: Communication, leadership, interpersonal skills, self-motivation/management, organizational knowledge, organizational strategy, administrative skills, and thinking. Communication, leadership, and self-motivation/management emerged, in that order, as the three most important success factors for physician executives. An individual's general competencies, work styles, and ability to lead others through organizational restructuring defines his or her appropriateness for managerial positions in the health care industry.
加州大学洛杉矶分校医疗服务管理中心与高管猎头公司海德思哲的医师高管实践部门近期开展的一项调查,揭示了新兴医师高管的角色。该研究的目标是确定成功因素,以此作为评估和培养有效行业领导者的一种方式。受访者被要求审视与九个类别相关的特定技能:沟通、领导力、人际交往能力、自我激励/管理、组织知识、组织战略、行政技能和思维。沟通、领导力和自我激励/管理依次成为医师高管最重要的三个成功因素。个人的综合能力、工作方式以及通过组织架构调整引领他人的能力,决定了其是否适合医疗行业的管理职位。
