Hart-Mathis Alumni Leadership Coaching

During their time in the Physician MBA Program, alumni Kevin Hart, MD, MBA’19, and Chad Mathis, MD, MBA’19, recognized career coaching as a key to navigating the transition from clinician to administrator and to addressing concerns in the current work environment. Together, they funded the Hart-Mathis Alumni Coaching Program to provide leadership and career-coaching resources for Physician MBA alumni throughout their professional trajectories.

How it Works

Alumni of the Physician MBA may apply for coaching through the Hart-Mathis program, which includes up to six hours of coaching. The application includes a commitment agreement and an essay that should address why you seek coaching and what you hope to gain from it. After submitting the application, you will receive an email from the Physician MBA Program team with next steps to connect with your coach. If you have questions or need help with the application, email kbizmed@iu.edu.
