We will also review how these tendencies are influenced by your personal values, and what happens to your leadership style when you are under stress. This insight into your personal style will provide the basis for the rest of the program.<\/p>\n By the end of this session you should be able to:<\/p>\n Session 3: Emotional Intelligence<\/strong><\/p>\n In this session we will focus on the importance of emotional intelligence in leadership and illustrate to you what happens when leaders lack emotional intelligence. This session will highlight some of the ways in which you can demonstrate emotional\u00a0intelligence when making decisions and leading others, with a focus on body language cues that you can incorporate into your own practice.<\/p>\n By the end of this session you should be able to:<\/p>\n Session 4:\u00a0<\/strong>Situational leadership<\/strong><\/p>\n This session will take a look at the theories and approaches that underpin our modern day understanding of leadership. We will use these theories to inform how we think about and practice leadership.<\/p>\n By the end of this session you should be able to:<\/p>\n Session 5:\u00a0<\/strong>Communication and influence<\/strong><\/p>\n The ability to influence is foundational to the concept of leadership. In this session will consider the psychology of influence, and will introduce you to some of the key thinking on what makes an effective influencer (and hence, an effective leader). We will review leadership in the workplace, and consider the social basis of power from which we are able to influence.<\/p>\n By the end of this session, you should be able to:<\/p>\n Session 6:\u00a0<\/strong>Negotiation and Navigating personal conflict<\/strong><\/p>\n Everyone will experience\u00a0conflict in the workplace at some time in their careers. As leaders, you must be able to effectively\u00a0navigate this conflict, using the appropriate conflict management tools and techniques to reach a win-win situation for you and your colleagues. This session will provide you with an understanding of your natural approach to conflict (it might not be what you expect!) and an understanding\u00a0of other approaches you might us to deal with conflict, and when these might be appropriate to use. Using case studies, we will explore\u00a0some of the common issues that arise in practice, and the most evidence-based strategies for managing these situations.<\/p>\n By the end of this session you should be able to:<\/p>\n Session 7: Presentation skills<\/strong><\/p>\n By the end of this session you should be able to:<\/p>\n Session 8: <\/strong>Navigating Conflict and Difficult Conversations<\/strong><\/p>\n In this session we will focus on bias, and the \u2018peanut butter and jelly\u2019 associations that we all make every day without even thinking about it. Unconscious bias can create attitudes or stereotypes that affect our understandings and decisions in an unconscious manner. If these biases are left unchecked, we can do more harm than good. In this session we will think about ways to recognize and mitigate your own biases.<\/p>\n By the end of this session you should be able to:<\/p>\n Session 9: Business planning\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n By the end of this session, you should be able to:<\/p>\n Session 10: Working in Teams<\/strong><\/p>\n By the end of this session, you should be able to:<\/p>\n Session 11: Selecting the right team: Behavioral Interviewing<\/strong><\/p>\n By the end of this session, you should be able to:<\/p>\n Session 12 & 13 Presenting your Capstone<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Applicant eligibility” _builder_version=”3.2.2″ open=”off”]<\/p>\n Applicants must meet the following qualifications:<\/strong><\/p>\n Must be either an Assistant Professor (MDs, PhDs, MD\/PhDs) or Associate Professor or Instructor.<\/p>\n Must be supported by their Director, Chair and\/or Division Chief<\/p>\n Must have protected time for participation – all face-to-face workshops are mandatory<\/p>\n Women, faculty who identify as underrepresented in medicine and science, and faculty with disabilities are encouraged to apply<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Previous participants” _builder_version=”3.2.2″ open=”off”]<\/p>\n Previous participants have reported personal and professional benefits of participating in the LEAD program.
