HealthCare
Our Program
The demands on our healthcare system have changed dramatically and quickly. Our systems were built to conquer infection and trauma and provide acute care. They were structured on cross-subsidies from profitable services and populations to fund other needs. They were created with limited incentives for cost-control.
Healthcare Executive Education
Vision
Now we are asking the healthcare system to do so much more. We are calling for a system that supports wellness, cares for people living with chronic health needs, delivers affordable care to everyone in need and does it all within our finite financial resources.
We help leaders build the strategy, finance, technology, operations and leadership skills it takes to lead the way into this future. You see the symptoms of this change in your work every day: insurance reform, value-based payment models, integrated care networks, healthcare consumerism, health system consolidation and more. At Haslam, we work with leaders and organizations to see past the symptoms to understand and tackle the underlying challenges and opportunities.
“The greatest asset to success is investing in yourself and being equipped to handle adversity. Led by innovative faculty who possess global experience, this program provides life-changing value to ensure you have the skills needed to maximize your leadership potential.”

New Skills Through Immediate Application
Applied learning underpins all of our programs. We work with executives and senior leaders who are responsible for moving forward critical initiatives. Bringing your work into the classroom makes the experience relevant, prompts deeper questions, pushes your initiatives forward and helps new skills stick for the long run.
Your current challenges, financial data and strategic questions become the foundation for classroom conversations. We integrate custom simulations built on research across organizations to give you hands-on experience tackling complex leadership and operational questions. You analyze your own organization in homework assignments. You also work with our faculty as coaches for longer-term, large-scale projects that include strategy, finance and operations.
“From the very first assignment, I was able to directly apply what I was learning in the program to my organization. I have extended my lens to encompass overall strategy, marketing and finance. The Executive MBA for Healthcare Leadership has prepared me to be a much more well-rounded contributor to the success of my organization.”
