Today, many hospitals are part of a multihospital network, which changes the context in which surgeons are asked to lead. This study explores key leadership competencies that surgical leaders use to navigate this hospital network expansion.
In this qualitative study, 30 surgical leaders were interviewed. Interviews were coded and analyzed via thematic analysis.
We identified three key competencies that leaders felt were important leadership skills to successfully navigate expanding hospital networks. First, leaders must steer the departmental vision within the evolving hospital network landscape. Second, leaders must align the visions of the department and of the hospital network. Third, leaders must build a network-oriented culture within their department.
As networks expand, leaders are tasked with unifying vision in their department. Leaders identified a unique opportunity to leverage their growing influence across the hospital network and invested in the people and culture of their department.
如今，许多医院都属于多医院网络的一部分，这改变了要求外科医生领导的环境。本研究探讨了外科领导人为应对这种医院网络扩张而使用的关键领导能力。
在这项定性研究中，对 30 名外科领导进行了采访。通过主题分析对访谈进行了编码和分析。
我们确定了领导者认为在成功应对不断扩大的医院网络方面很重要的三项关键能力。首先，领导者必须在不断发展的医院网络环境中引导部门的愿景。其次，领导者必须使部门和医院网络的愿景保持一致。第三，领导者必须在他们的部门内建立一个面向网络的文化。
随着网络的扩展，领导者的任务是统一部门的愿景。领导者发现了一个独特的机会，可以利用他们在整个医院网络中的影响力，并投资于他们部门的人员和文化。
