Medical Practice Management: In-Person Micro-Credential

In-Person

Leading a medical practice today means navigating complex compensation models, regulatory landmines, health system politics, and operational pressures—all while keeping physicians engaged and patients well-served. Whether you're a CMO, practice president, division chief, or medical director, the leadership challenges are real: How do you govern strategically without micromanaging? What compensation model actually drives the right behaviors? How do you use data to improve performance without alienating your physicians?


This intensive 2-day AAPL Accelerator gives physician leaders the frameworks, tools, and confidence to lead successful medical practices. You'll move beyond clinical expertise to master the business fundamentals that separate struggling practices from thriving ones. From designing compensation models that align with strategy, to running board meetings that actually accomplish something, to understanding the P&L well enough to make informed decisions—you'll leave with immediately applicable knowledge.


Drawing on real-world case studies and tested frameworks, this hands-on workshop addresses the unique challenges physician leaders face when transitioning from clinical roles to practice leadership. You'll work through practical scenarios, learn from peers facing similar challenges, and build a personalized action plan for your practice. This isn't theory—it's the operational and strategic toolkit you need to lead with confidence.

Who Should Enroll
Chief Medical Officers, practice presidents and managing partners, division chiefs, medical directors, and any physician leader responsible for practice governance, operations, financial performance, or strategic direction. Ideal for those transitioning into formal practice leadership roles or seeking to strengthen their business and operational capabilities.
