The Understanding and Courage to Lead – Part 3
It is the age-old question: are leaders born or are they made? Some leaders seem to emerge among a group of peers due to their inherent traits, but then fail to perform well in a formal role. Effective leaders instead display a particular subset of positive traits and behaviors. Fostering and developing these behaviors over time with practice can make leaders. Through these four sessions, Medical Physics Leadership Academy (MPLA) will have attendees interactively explore essential personal and interpersonal knowledge and skills founded in and related to empathy and courage – two key characteristics of effective leaders.

Daring Greatly in the Field
The third session of the series will continue to explore courage and how it relates to initiative and adaptability. Attendees will have the opportunity to listen as well as interact in this hands-on leadership development session.

Learning Objectives:
1. Understand how courage relates to essential personal and interpersonal knowledge and skills, especially initiative and adaptability as part of self-management.
2. Experiment with applications of courage.
3. Adapt essential courage skills in their own environments.
