The UW Health Physician Leadership Development Program was designed to develop the leaders needed to implement institutional strategies and meet future challenges in academic medicine.
Two faculty members of the BerbeeWalsh Department of Emergency Medicine recently completed the 2022-2023 program: Joshua Gauger, MD, MBA, assistant professor, medical director for emergency medicine at University Hospital, medical director for trauma at East Madison Hospital; and Nicholas Kuehnel, MD, associate professor, Department of Emergency Medicine, and medical director for quality and safety, UW Health Kids.
Over the course of the year-long program, participants learned leadership skills, including how to work in cross-functional teams, manage change, and effectively communicate. Top photo: The 27-member cohort of the 2022–2023 UW Health Physician Leadership Development Program.
