ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Leadership is recognized as an essential competency across healthcare and science. The LEAD (Leadership Emerging in Academic Departments) program at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (ISMMS) is a structured 12-month blended learning program that catalyzes personal and professional leadership skills, behaviors, and capacity.Methods:
Utilizing a post-program survey design, the Leadership Program Outcome Measure (LPOM) explored self-reported impact of the LEAD program on leadership knowledge and skills in relation to personal and organizational leadership constructs. Application of leadership skills to practice was tracked via completion of a leadership-focused capstone project.Results:
Over 3 cohorts, 76 participants graduated and 50 completed the LPOM survey (68% response rate). Participants self-reported an increase in leadership skills, conveyed plans to use acquired skills in current and future leadership positions, and noted improved leadership skills across the personal and organizational domains. Comparatively less change was detected at the community level. Tracking of capstone projects found that 64% of participants were able to successfully implement their project in practice.Conclusion:
LEAD was successful in promoting the development of personal and organizational leadership practices. The LPOM evaluation provided a valuable lens through which to assess the individual, interpersonal, and organizational impact of a multidimensional leadership training program.
