Publisher Description

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Debates often arise about who is best suited to manage a healthcare organization. Therefore, we argue that an examination of the ability of healthcare organizations' chief executive officers (CEOs) to make strategic decisions is warranted. Is the most appropriate leader the medically educated CEO, whose training in patient care allows him or her to be most cognizant of the quality-of-care needs of the organization? Or is it the managerially educated CEO, whose training makes him or her most aware of the organization's financial needs?
