Gonzaga University News Service recently published a story about a leadership course offered to UWSOM medical students in the UW School of Medicine-Gonzaga University Health Partnership. The course has been well-received, with the future doctors citing how it will influence their careers.
The Leadership Pathway, a program developed by Gonzaga’s School of Leadership Studies, aims to lay the foundation for aspiring physicians to be capable, effective leaders within their organizations and communities.
“Many people and organizations within medical education have highlighted the need for leadership training for future doctors, yet not many places are doing it,” said Dr. Darryl Potyk, associate dean for eastern Washington, and chief of medical education for the UWSOM-GU Health Partnership.
