March 31 Leadership Series Continues with…

“Leading by Design: An Intentional Approach to Culture and Innovation at Tampa General Hospital“

Featuring Special Guest Speaker
John D. Couris, President & CEO of Tampa General Hospital

About the Program
Join us on March 31 as John D. Couris, President and CEO of Tampa General Hospital, discusses his approach to designing culture and innovation in a large hospital system.

As a visionary leader, Couris has had continued success in building healthcare companies throughout the country by driving innovation, operational excellence, and strategic collaborations. In this session, Couris will share his approach to creating an organizational culture that thrives on authenticity, kindness, vulnerability and transparency, and how focusing on the wellbeing of his team drives positive experiences for healthcare consumers.

Since taking the helm of Tampa General Hospital in 2017, Couris has championed innovation. He will share his experiences in launching CareComm, a care coordination center using artificial intelligence, predictive analytics, and industrial engineering to improve safety, quality, and cost.

Couris will also look at Tampa General Hospital InnoVentures, a venture capital fund he has launched that is dedicated to driving a culture of innovation within the organization, supporting early-stage startups and direct investments.

These initiatives combine Couris’ passion for operational excellence with his focus on achieving the organization’s vision to become the safest and most innovative academic health system in America.

About the Leadership Series
The Leadership Series was created to bring to ACHE of Georgia members and guests the top national leaders in the field of healthcare to give us their insights into their careers, their organizations, and the decisions they made to get them to where they are today.

You’ll learn straight from the source how these top executives run their organizations and manage their success.

The format is one hour with 50 minutes of lecture and 10 minutes of Q&A. We are expecting to offer at least one session a month, and the schedule will depend on speaker availability. Our series qualifies for one hour of qualified continuing education credit with ACHE.
