Nominations sought for Up & Comers recognition

As healthcare executives face an increasingly uncertain marketplace and adapt to the accelerating shift from volume to value, the next generation of leaders must evolve along with the industry. Those challenges, along with the rise in consumerism in healthcare, will require new ideas and approaches in all sectors. Today’s young leaders are already proving they are up to the task.

To help celebrate these rising young stars in healthcare leadership industrywide, Modern Healthcare is now accepting nominations for its annual Up & Comers recognition.

Nominees must be no older than 40 as of the Aug. 4 submission deadline. Nominations will be judged based on several criteria, including: the scope of the person’s responsibilities and accomplishments; the financial and operating performance of the organization(s) under the nominee’s leadership; the individual’s community service; and leadership roles outside of the nominee’s organization.

Judging will be conducted by a panel of Modern Healthcare’s senior editors.

To learn more about the program, submit a nomination and read about previous honorees, please visit ModernHealthcare.com/UpandComers. This year’s class of Up & Comers will be profiled in the Oct. 16 issue of Modern Healthcare and online.
