Abstract
The Director's Forum is designed to guide pharmacy leaders in establishing patient-centered services in hospitals and health systems. Developing an effective pipeline of leadership is essential for the future of the profession of pharmacy. Historically, considerable attention has been placed upon succession planning in the hospital pharmacy environment.
