This episode takes a look at the recent ACS Leadership & Advocacy Summit, the leadership lessons learned and advice for surgeons in all career stages who want to improve their leadership skills. Dr. Michael Sutherland, director of the ACS Division of Member Services, talks to two high-powered surgeon-leaders—Dr. Bob Higgins, a cardiothoracic surgeon who is president of Brigham and Women’s Hospital and executive vice president of Mass General Brigham in Boston, and Dr. Max Langham, a pediatric surgeon who is a professor emeritus at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, a consulting surgeon at St. Jude’s Research Hospital, both in Memphis, and CEO of Tio Companies, which seeks to digitize reproductive toxicology.

• Michael J. Sutherland, MD, MBA, FACS, Director, ACS Division of Member Services, Chicago, Illinois
