Join your host Andrew Tisser with his guest Nate Link MD, MPH, as they talk about the kind of physicians who shouldn’t lead, the attributes of highly effective physician leaders, his book: The Ailing Nation, and more. For Nate, institutions regarding health care need to be continually led by leaders who remain in practice. For these leaders to succeed in their leadership, he always sees putting others first as what works. He believes when climbing the ladder—people will recognize if you’re in it for them—or just for yourself.

In this episode you will learn:

  • The trajectory of Nate’s career from residency to now
  • Is administrative work a viable non-clinical career for people sick of careers in health care?
  • What kind of physicians should not get into leadership roles?
  • The three (3) attributes of leaders who take their people to new places
