Did you know that learning leadership skills can help you be a better physician? Developing core leadership competencies can strengthen your resilience, improve how you manage time and stress, and increase your workflow efficiency. Beginning in February, 2022, ISMA will offer “Leading Well in Today’s Health Care Environment,” a 12-week physician leadership series exclusively for ISMA members. 

This virtual series is presented in conjunction with the Washington State Medical Association. It will be led by Edward A. Walker, MD, MHA, of the University of Washington and the Washington State Medical Association Center for Leadership Development and combines live and online sessions for your convenience. 

Requirements for successful completion of this series include the following.

Attendance at three virtual daylong sessions with Dr. Walker
  • Tuesday, Feb. 22, and Wednesday, Feb. 23, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET. There will be a one-hour lunch break and several other breaks.
  • Tuesday, May 10, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET.
Weekly virtual communication within your designated small group
  • Topics will be posted weekly from late February through mid-May. You may read any assigned articles or posts and comment on them at your own convenience. Assignments will be posted on Fridays and will be due by the following Friday.
Personal coaching options 
  • After successful completion of all workshop sessions and online assignments, you will be invited to schedule an optional one-hour, follow-up coaching session with Dr. Walker.
  • You may schedule an additional one-hour session with a local coaching professional. Participants may select either a physician coach or an executive leadership coach for this session.
Registration for “Leading Well” will open on Thursday, Nov. 11, here following the separate introductory webinar. Early registration for the series is recommended, as the class size is limited to 24 physicians. Thanks to the support of a Physicians Foundation grant, ISMA member physicians will pay just $200 to attend the series - a 90% discount.
