The Physician Leadership Institute, a partnership between The Carolinas Center for Medical Excellence (CCME) and the UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School, is designed to provide valuable management and leadership skills that will meet and exceed the various challenges presented in today's health care environment. Traditionally PLI has been held over the course of four weekends spanning several months. To accommodate the physicians and their busy schedules we have redesigned the 2010 PLI to be held over five consecutive days. The program will be scheduled from Wednesday through Sunday in the fall.

Today’s health care system is becoming increasingly complex – from highly integrated medical staffs, to the escalating cost of services, to an ever-changing technological frontier. In order to meet the challenges that physicians face every day, it’s important to continue to adapt to this fast-paced health care environment. That is why the Physician Leadership Institute is designed to provide not only the CME hours, but also the valuable management and leadership skills that will meet and exceed the various challenges presented in today’s health care environment.
