The GI Organizational Leadership Development (GOLD) program was established in 2018 to enhance the organizational leadership skills of experienced (5 or more years beyond fellowship) ASGE members who are interested in pursuing a career in executive physician leadership within academic or private practice. This 12-month integrated leadership program focuses on the business and operational side of medicine.
Program participants focus on developing their leadership skills and business knowledge, personal influence, and exploring strategies for goal development, and advancement strategies. The GOLD program addresses opportunities and challenges within the context of a gastroenterology career in physician executive leadership, and it helps participants put effective, collaborative methods of leadership to work within their organizations and ASGE.
