AIMW27 Precourses

For many GME program leaders (residency or fellow PDs, APDs, or core faculty), the first year in the role largely centers on learning to do the tasks that must be completed to run your program.  This precourse will cover content focused on strategies to grow your leadership and managerial skills, respond to challenges, structure and support your team, and proactively change and grow your training program.  Specific content areas will include developing remediation pathways and teams within the training program, managing and leading a team, the change management cycle, and strategies to develop your faculty.

Frame for session overall is that Year 1 is about keeping the lights on (doing things you must do to run the program), and now is a great time to understand yourself, your team’s capabilities, your program's needs, and think critically about how to optimize and change the program.

Target Audience
GME fellowship and residency program associate/directors, faculty and particularly leaders 2-5 years into their current role or wanting to revisit some core GME leadership principles.
