Abstract
Most of us want our work to have mattered and to make lasting contributions that outlive us. This article urges healthcare administrators, leaders, and managers to clarify their legacy aspirations and to articulate them in a concise leadership legacy statement. It provides readers with seven effective strategies for developing a legacy mindset and a 25-question True/False quiz for assessing their strengths and weaknesses in planning their intended legacies.

This article then suggests how leaders can use their legacy statements to guide their leadership and urges them to create and use legacy treasure maps and conduct annual legacy statement audits. It also suggests four ways that healthcare leaders can work collaboratively to achieve their intended legacies. Finally, this article provides a sample leadership legacy statement to serve as inspiration for legacy-minded healthcare leaders.
