In this intense conversation, Lee Scheinbart and Dr. Larry McEvoy, the founder of Epidemic Leadership, explore the evolving landscape of healthcare and the role of physician leadership. In the first of this two part series, the discussion touches on the importance of nurturing emerging leaders and the potential for innovative solutions in healthcare management.  These two leadership teachers deep dive into the importance of a healing ethic in medicine, the need for physicians to exponentially lead both internally and externally, and the challenges facing the healthcare system today. Dr. McEvoy presents a radical, yet entirely logical, approach to create change in healthcare right now and both doctors examine and redefine what success in healthcare looks like beyond profit, advocating for a focus on health as a driver of societal well-being.
