The School of Medicine Office for Faculty is pleased to announce the 2018 LEADER participants.
Leadership Development for Researchers (LEADER) is a 3-day workshop designed for junior faculty who are leading a research group and driving their own research agenda. The course provides insight into leadership and team building as well as direction on how to develop and manage a scientific laboratory or research program, how to improve productivity, and how to harness creativity and innovation. The program was developed to bridge the gap between the scientific expertise that led individuals to a career in academic medicine, and the management skills that will be required to succeed as the leaders of small business units. LEADER will be held April 17-19, 2018.
“My belief is that effective leadership skills can be developed over time,” said Ann Brown, MD, MHS, Vice Dean for Faculty in the School of Medicine. “These programs aim to supplement outstanding scientific and clinical training with dedicated time to focus on cultivating critical leadership competencies beneficial for all current and aspiring leaders.”
Faculty in this program were competitively selected to participate. Congratulations to the 2018 LEADER participants!
