Academic Medicine Executive Search

Academic Medical Centers

The academic medicine practice of Quick Leonard Kieffer addresses the complex triple aim of patient care, education, and innovation found in academic medical institutions. These organizations set the standard for health care across the country and around the globe, preserving strong reputations and traditions. Our firm’s recruiters provide trusted guidance to academic medical organizations that are seeking to advance clinical care, break new ground in educational offerings, and/or expand research capabilities. Because we have been a niche firm across the full spectrum of health care since our inception, we are able to offer both depth of experience and nimbleness in expertly meeting our academic medical clients’ needs.

Academic medicine has a culture all its own, in which diversity and transparency are highly valued. The leadership of these institutions must be strategic, innovative, and politically savvy, bringing skill in fundraising, mentorship, and relationship-building, as well as an enthusiasm for technology implementation. Through the robust network of contacts our firm has developed over the years, we are able to keep our finger on the pulse of the academic medical space, identifying and successfully recruiting candidates who excel in these varied skill areas.
