1. Half of CEOs at top-performing healthcare companies hold an MBA as their terminal degree, according to a recent report from Crist Kolder Associates. 

2. The number of female CEOs at leading American companies has more than doubled since 2013, according to a recent report from Crist Kolder Associates. However, healthcare has added the fewest of any industry — there was one female healthcare CEO in 2013, and there are five in 2023. 

3. The chief operating officer role — despite being in a period of flux this year — is still a strong springboard to the helm, according to a recent report from Crist Kolder Associates. Healthcare sports a low COO turnover rate compared to other industries, at 7.4 percent.

4. When compared to leaders of other industries, healthcare CEOs and CFOs serve slightly below-average tenures, according to a recent report from Crist Kolder Associates.
