Introducing: American Association for Physician Leadership

The American College of Physician Executives (ACPE) is becoming the American Association for Physician Leadership.

In response to the rapidly evolving healthcare industry and growing recognition that physician leadership is essential to the successful transformation of healthcare, the new association is leveraging ACPE’s 40-year legacy of superior physician leadership education and management training.

All physicians, at some level, are considered leaders and society still expects them to become leaders. The organization’s new identity better reflects the significant role the association will continue to play in helping physicians from all backgrounds and in all types of positions realize their leadership potential.

By broadening the scope of programs, products and services, the association strives to more fully support the physician workforce across the entire career span, from medical students to those in later career stages. This also includes physicians in clinical roles, nonclinical administrative roles, and those on nontraditional physician career paths.
