Why clinicians should lead hospitals, according to Prof. Amanda Goodall

Prof. Amanda Goodall, director of the Executive Master’s in Medical Leadership (EMML), a specialized MSc degree from Bayes Business School offering advanced leadership training to medical doctors, joined SOHO Insider podcast host Prof. Christopher Fox, a professor of hematology at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust, for a discussion on expert leadership in healthcare. According to Prof. Goodall, expert leadership is the idea that organizations perform best when leaders are experts in the core work of the institution. As part of this work, she runs an executive master’s program in medical leadership, designed to help physicians develop the skills needed to lead healthcare organizations while maintaining credibility as clinicians. Her research argues that in healthcare this means placing experienced, high-performing physicians in leadership roles rather than relying primarily on generalist managers. Many doctors, she noted, are interested in leadership because they want to drive meaningful change and improve patient care, but historically they have had limited access to formal leadership training. The podcast was taped during the inaugural meeting of SOHO UK [https://sohoinsider.com/category/meetings-conferences/soho-uk/], where Prof. Goodall gave a talk after dinner on the topic.
