2025 Healthcare Business Academy Fellowship Program

The future of any community is directly linked to the quality of its leadership, the health of its economy and its people. The commitment of dedicated, educated, and motivated leaders can make a measurable impact on quality, cost, and access to healthcare. But how can you get the right people in your community all focused on this vital mission? How can you give them the knowledge, tools, and a path forward to a common goal?

Introducing, NorthStar Network's 2025 Healthcare Business Academy (HBA) Fellowship Program. This year-long intensive leadership development program integrates monthly workshops, on-line learning, self-assessments, and engaging discussions with national and local thought leaders and healthcare industry experts.
