From the author: How can physician executives be effective leaders during a time of such upheaval in health care? How does anyone lead in a confusing environment where planning seems impossible? Is effective leadership even possible when no one seems to understand what is going on? These important questions are addressed in this article. Health care is a confusing field. But it still needs effective leadership. Even though nobody really knows what is going on, physician leaders can play a beneficial role by encouraging everyone they work with to experiment and innovate with ways to make health care work better for patients. Physician executives can insist on accountability and on implementing what really works in their given context, rather than what the latest theory states should work.
