Claude Moore Physician Leadership Institute
Physicians often find themselves in positions of leadership – within their practices, their health systems, their communities, and the larger health arena. While medical school has prepared them to successfully overcome a wide variety of clinical challenges, it is unlikely to have supplied the basic principles and practices of effective leadership. The Medical Society of Virginia Foundation (MSVF), through a five-year grant from the Claude Moore Charitable Foundation and with support from HCA Virginia, established the Claude Moore Physician Leadership Institute in 2006. This yearlong program is one of only a handful in the nation that is devoted to providing physicians with formal, ongoing leadership training. The goal of the Institute is to produce a network of physician leaders who work individually and together to effectively advance health and health care in Virginia.

Here’s what participants are saying about MSVF's Physician Leadership programs:
“I have long been interested in playing a leadership role in my practice, my hospital, but I lacked so many of the tools to be effective. I will need to practice utilizing facets of what I have learned, but already I believe it is making a difference in the way I approach issue.”
“An excellent combination of topics, readings, and speakers. And an inspiring group of individual physician Fellows.”
“Each speaker gave me something – each touched on a different facet of my life/role and it will take time to better absorb, understand, and incorporate the gems I grasped.”
“Thank you – an intense, extremely valuable session! Well-planned, well run.”
"I wanted to learn how to become a better leader and physician and the training met these goals."
"It opened my eyes to many different skills and put into words leadership skills."
"Good overview to start with many helpful topics."
"Many qualities were outlined as a leader that I either did not know about or disregarded as unimportant but were brought to the forefront."
"Gave me a clear understanding of what a leader
is and what skill set is necessary to be an effective leader."
