Abstract

Finding ways to execute physician leadership development programs and how individuals and teams are affected by these programs are of particular interest to those in the healthcare industry. This mixed-methods study compares the resultant outcomes of two identical physician leader development courses conducted under different conditions, one a homogeneous (physician-only) class and the other an interprofessional (doctors, nurses, administrators) class. Quantitative and qualitative surveys were used to determine and compare the effectiveness of participation in the homogeneous or interprofessional condition.
