摘要

Formal leadership training is widely recognized as essential to the future of academic medicine. Most academic health centers now offer leadership development programs for faculty at various levels, and cultivating leadership is a well-established national priority. Many medical schools have integrated leadership education into their curricula, and national organizations increasingly support offering such opportunities during medical training. The military’s structured approach to leadership development offers tools that may be highly applicable to medical students and residents, helping to shape the next generation of physician leaders. These tools include rotating leadership roles, non-anonymous peer evaluations, defined leadership philosophies, consistent feedback, and mandatory counseling. As the literature on leadership education in academic medicine continues to expand, it should increasingly incorporate and evaluate models drawn from military training.
