Dean's Message:
December 2007 - Leadership Training: Central to SOM Mission
Stony Brook University School of Medicine is a growing and changing entity. The 2007/08 first year class is the largest ever (116 students), our curriculum continues to change with new clerkships and additional clinical skills training, and more than 40 new faculty have joined the Medical Center in 2007. With growth comes the need to build mid-level faculty leadership. This is an important step to increasing departmental research, professional development, and creative ways to train future physicians.
Members of my Leadership Advisory Group have embarked on a journey this academic year that will optimize their talents and abilities in leadership roles. Each is participating in the School of Medicine Advisory Group Leadership Academy, which began as a two-day retreat in early October. The program continues with six leadership training sessions, scheduled until mid-April. Some of the themes of these sessions include “Inspiring a Shared Vision,” “Modeling the Way,” and “Enabling Others to Act.”
