Faculty are the most valuable resource for an academic department to achieve its mission. Creating a culture to retain talented colleagues is one of the most important responsibilities of leaders. It can take years for a division and department to recover after losing a valuable faculty member.

Adult Academic Department Practice
For more than 25 years, CareerPhysician’s proprietary talent processes have yielded unmatched success in supporting the critical faculty and leadership talent needs of academic departments of pediatrics and their associated centers, institutes and children’s hospitals. One unique aspect of academic child health delivery systems is that many pediatric medicine and surgical subspecialists reside in adult departments and may represent a lower percentage of the department’s comprehensive operations.
CareerPhysician is recognized by adult department chairs for its proven ability to serve as an interface with departments and their associated child health partners in achieving alignment around talent strategies that effectively lead to securing transformational leaders for their pediatric divisions. While our mission to meaningfully impact the lives of children and families and the careers of the faculty and leaders that serve them remains, as the national leader in academic child health executive search and leadership development, we must also support the missions of adult departments if we are to reach all children and be comprehensive in our efforts.
