AHA releases succession planning guide for hospital and health system leaders

The AHA and its Physician Alliance today released a guide to help hospital and health system leaders prioritize and support a robust succession planning program for their organization, based on challenges and opportunities identified by their peers.
 
“Particularly over the last two plus years, succession planning may have struggled to garner leadership attention amidst significant challenges associated with the pandemic,” the guide notes. “But given the talent shortages, turnover and retirements, the talent landscape in health care is rapidly shifting and efforts are needed to consider and plan for the future of leadership.” 
 
The guide was produced in partnership with talent management firm STS.
