American Association for Physician Leadership® (AAPL)

Physicians see the gaps first. The metric no one owns. The risk between two departments. The decision being made without a clinical voice. Healthcare needs physicians who will lead into those gaps, and who know how to do it well: with curiosity, clear scope, credibility earned, and a plan to hand the work off before temporary becomes burnout. That's what physician leadership looks like beyond the job description. I'll be leading a session on this at the American Association for Physician Leadership® (AAPL) 2026 Annual Leadership Conference, Oct. 22–24 in Scottsdale. https://lnkd.in/eNgiJjjx #AAPLeadership26 #AAPL #PhysicianLeadership #HealthcareLeaders

What does it really take to make sound financial decisions in a world full of investment noise? In the latest episode of the SoundPractice Podcast, Ed Coburn joins us for a conversation on investing without the hype and what physicians need to know about money, discipline, and staying focused on the long term. For physicians, financial decision-making can come with plenty of competing opinions, market headlines, and pressure to act. This conversation takes a closer look at the value of cutting through the noise and approaching investing with greater clarity and discipline. 🎧 Listen to the latest episode: Investing Without Hype: What Physicians Need to Know About Money, Noise, and Discipline with Ed Coburn https://hubs.la/Q04yP2Gt0 #SoundPractice #PhysicianLeadership #PhysicianFinance #MedicalLeadership #FinancialWellness

I can't believe it's only 3 weeks away! Our talk, “Leading Yourself and Your Team Through the Age of AI” will be given by myself and Edgar G. Chedrawy MD at the American Association for Physician Leadership® (AAPL) Annual Leadership Conference. #AAPLeadership26 #HealthcareLeaders #AAPL

If physician leadership development isn't in your 2027 budget, it becomes a 2028 problem. Health systems are finalizing next year's spend right now, and leadership development is often the first line cut. Its cost is visible. The cost of skipping it isn't. But you're already paying that cost. In physician turnover. In leaders promoted into roles no one prepared them for. In chiefs learning the job while doing the job. AAPL builds competency-based leadership programs sized to your organization, your specialties, and your budget. Not a catalog to buy from, a program built with you. Budget season is a narrow window. Let's talk before it closes. Request more information: https://hubs.la/Q04wJC4N0 #HealthcareLeadership #LeadershipDevelopment #PhysicianLeadership

Earn up to 18 CME credits while learning from healthcare leaders through peer sessions and panel discussions. Join us October 22-24 in Scottsdale, AZ.

Leadership development for physicians runs into a scheduling problem first. Programs built around blocked weeks and travel ask the most of the physicians who have the least room to give — and the format itself becomes the barrier, no matter how strong the curriculum. AAPL's micro-credentials are built the other way around. Fundamentals of Physician Leadership, Quality, Safety & Efficiency, and Communications & Team Management are all self-paced, CME-bearing, and completed without pulling anyone off the floor. Rigorous training and a realistic schedule aren't a tradeoff. Your physicians shouldn't have to choose. #PhysicianLeadership #HealthcareLeadership #CME #PhysicianWorkforceDevelopment #MicroCredentials #AAPL

You don't have to commit to the full 125 hours of CPE to start building the skills it certifies. AAPL's courses stand on their own. Finance, change management, leading teams, quality improvement: each one earns CME and covers something you're likely handling right now. If the credential becomes the goal later, those hours are already part of that curriculum. Start with one course and see where it leads. Not sure where to start?
