The Challenge of Medical Education Leadership

One of the biggest misconceptions about being a residency program or clerkship leader is that it’s primarily an education job. In reality, program leadership requires far more leading than educating. So while you were polishing your presentation, bedside teaching, and curriculum writing skills, you may not have been working on your specific leadership style, building organizational skills, or understanding the byzantine requirements of program accreditation.

Leadership coaching can help.

Leadership coaching can help by targeting specific administrative, managerial, and executive skills to make you an effective education program leader. Through guided reflection and critical thinking, you’ll identify the specific domains to target and improve to become the leader you always wanted to be.

Academic Educator Coaching can help with leadership skills and education program management.
