HBA Think Tank Surveys
Leading Forward in a Transforming Healthcare Landscape
Your voice matters—share your insights and enter to win a $50 gift card!
Healthcare is undergoing rapid transformation — driven by innovation, evolving workforce expectations, new technology, and increasing complexity. As the environment shifts, so too must the way we think about leadership. Today, leadership is not defined solely by title or tenure, but by the ability to influence, collaborate, guide teams through change, and drive meaningful impact across the healthcare ecosystem.
This survey explores how healthcare professionals — from students preparing to enter the field to senior leaders guiding large teams — view leadership today and what they believe will be required to lead effectively in the future. It examines the skills and behaviors valued most, the development opportunities that matter, and the organizational practices that support or hinder leadership growth and confidence.
Your voice will help us:
- Identify the skills, capabilities, and mindsets needed for tomorrow’s healthcare leaders
 - Understand the supports that enable leadership development at all levels
 - Uncover opportunities to strengthen mentorship, sponsorship, coaching, and performance feedback
 - Explore how AI, digital fluency, and new ways of working shape leadership readiness
 - Inform tools and strategies to develop a more prepared, confident, and future-ready healthcare workforce
 
Who Should Take This Survey?
This global survey is open to healthcare professionals and students preparing for healthcare careers. Whether you work in clinical care, research, corporate functions, education, operations, or executive leadership — or you are a student entering the field — your insights are essential to shaping the future of leadership in healthcare.
Why Should You Take This Survey?
Your responses will help inform leadership development strategies, programs, and resources across the healthcare industry. All responses are confidential and will contribute to actionable insights that support a strong, inclusive, and future-ready workforce.
