Give your leadership team the framework, not just the answer.

Most healthcare organizations respond to political challenges one at a time, bringing in outside counsel when a specific situation demands it. Each engagement starts from zero, and the organization never builds internal capacity to analyze political environments independently.

Executive education through Aperture is structured differently. The goal isn’t to solve one problem — it’s to give your leadership team the analytical framework to navigate the next ten.

How Programs Are Structured

Format 1: Cohort Program

A multi-session curriculum delivered to your leadership team over four to six weeks. Sessions combine direct instruction on the Five-Variable Model with application workshops using your real strategic challenges. Most effective for health system C-suites and senior strategy staff.

Format 2: Bulk Book + Facilitated Discussion

For teams who want to engage the material on their own timeline. Includes bulk copies of Healthcare Political Strategy (2025) plus two to three facilitated sessions to apply the framework to your organization’s context. Lower time commitment; highest flexibility.

Format 3: Custom Curriculum

For academic institutions and professional associations with existing curriculum frameworks. Aperture develops a custom module aligned to your program’s learning objectives and student level. Available for MHA, MPH, and health policy graduate programs.
