The impact of physician leadership development on behaviour and work-related changes.

In this article, we present findings from a retrospective survey of 117 physician leadership development program graduates at the Sauder School of Business at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. The survey was designed to assess how the program contributed to graduates' leadership development, specifically in terms of behaviour change and work-related changes. The themes resulting from the analysis of the open-ended questions reflected that the program led to changes in graduates' leadership behaviour and their ability to lead change in their respective organizations. The study highlighted the benefits of investment in training for physician leaders to advance transformation and improvement initiatives in a changing world.
