If you are interested in improving your leadership skills, apply for Leadership College today. A limited number of nominees are selected to participate. Nomination forms should be completed by the nominee and the nominating organization.

One of the most distinctive qualities of the Leadership College is that the courses are designed and often taught by physicians. Five interactive training sessions are held over the year-long course that focuses on topics such as leadership styles and competencies; delegation and teamwork; conflict resolution; media relations and spokesperson training; communication and advocacy strategies; negotiation skills for medical professionals; management fundamentals of non-profit organizations; and legislative policy and advocacy.
