Complexity Drives Need for Leaders in Academic Health Sciences and Healthcare

Leadership in healthcare fields is growing increasingly complex due to a number of factors. Federal and state laws related to healthcare reform create uncertainties, and the rapid change of pace in the industry - from education to training to delivery - is enough to challenge the leader of any organization.

The PES academic health sciences and healthcare practice team is uniquely positioned to be a strategic partner in identifying and recruiting top talent for academic health science centers and healthcare organizations across the country. In 2013, this team conducted 17 searches for vice presidents, deans and department chairs across the fields of medicine, nursing, public health, dentistry and health professions, as many institutions continue to open new programs and colleges focused on the health sciences. The team continues to enjoy steady growth as it builds long-term relationships with clients in top organizations nationwide.
