Abstract
Complex 21st century healthcare systems require leaders capable of making strategic decisions grounded on sound medical and healthcare knowledge and practices. Traditionally, these two domains have been viewed through a binary lens. In the 21st century, these domains are best viewed through a unitary lens. Consequently, several medical and business schools have developed joint programs to train physician leaders who receive both medical (MD) and master of business administration (MBA) degrees. St. Joseph's University in partnership with Lancaster General Health (LG Health) system developed an Executive MBA program for aspiring healthcare system leaders who previously trained for only one domain. This chapter examines the impact of the Executive MBA on clinical leaders and the organization they serve.
