Rethinking Leadership for Academic Medical Centers: Navigating the Challenges
Q: Alexis, let's start by asking you to summarize the top headwinds AMC leaders face today.
The financial model for AMCs is at risk due to reduced government funding and rising labor costs, coupled with market shifts in delivering low-cost care; cultural and political pressures intensify mistrust and misinformation; and talent pressures persist with a focus on well-being and work-life balance, plus mobility and global collaboration impacts.

Q: What is the working definition of a high reliability organization that you advocate for in this conversation?
HRO should be understood as high reliability organizing—a dynamic, active state where the organization continually monitors, learns, and adapts to perform as intended consistently over time, across all facets of the operation.
