Fundamentals of leading others

Medical Team In Hospital

Stepping into medical leadership can feel daunting but is also crucial in shaping the future of healthcare and is of growing importance for the career development of all doctors.

This workshop is designed to empower you with the essential organisational leadership skills needed to navigate complex healthcare systems, advocate for your team, and champion equality, diversity, and inclusion.

This workshop forms part of the Leadership Series and contributes towards the Â鶹Çø Doctors as Leaders accreditation. To gain the accreditation, you simply need to attend this workshop and the Fundamentals of Self-Leadership workshop.

What will you learn?

This workshop helps learners to:

  • Develop a practical use for leadership styles
  • Recognise and utilise the strengths of others in clinical teams
  • Identify ways to improve motivation, engagement and energy within teams
  • Explore ways to overcome the challenges of leading others
  • Discuss ways to facilitate a culture of psychological safety
  • Debate the role of the junior/middle leader in supporting team
  • Develop understanding of equality, diversity and inclusion
  • Examine the importance of supporting and developing others.

This workshop is approved for 6 external CPD credits.   

This workshop is primarily aimed at resident doctors of all specialties (ST1 - ST7) and SAS doctors of equivalent experience. It would also be beneficial for those who are new to leadership roles, or those with no prior leadership training. 

Consultants and SAS doctors of equivalent experience may attend, generally benefitting as a refresher course or if they have not attended any previous leadership training. 

Alternatively, there are two workshops that are more appropriate for consultants and equivalent SAS doctors:
