About the Vanguard Group

The Vanguard Group within AAPL is for a special community of seasoned physician leaders. The knowledge, experience and leadership insights represented by those physicians in the Vanguard Group are unparalleled in healthcare. The twice-per-year face-to-face meetings are a unique opportunity to share, learn and network with peers of like-minded purpose, idealism, and drive to create positive change in our industry. The general objectives for these meetings are:

  • Panel discussion on a variety of challenging topic areas within healthcare for physician leaders.

  • Sharing of opinions on the options for how physician leaders might address the topic areas in a neutral, non-threatening community environment.

  • Robust networking opportunities within the Vanguard Group as well as with the general AAPL constituency

  • Engagement of Vanguard Group on initiatives related to thought leadership and influence in healthcare.

For over 45 years.

The American Association for Physician Leadership has helped physicians develop their leadership skills through education, career development, thought leadership and community building.

The American Association for Physician Leadership (AAPL) changed its name from the American College of Physician Executives (ACPE) in 2014. We may have changed our name, but we are the same organization that has been serving physician leaders since 1975.
