Teaching leadership in medical schools is important. This relationship-centered framework based on emotional intelligence is a great graphic! A connection with yourself is the place to start. Taking care of yourself by following a healthy lifestyle with restorative sleep, healthy food, routine physical activity, stress resilience, positive social connections, and avoidance of risky substances is the place to start. These behaviors help you to be at your best---medical student or attending physician. Learning to work in teams and honor each person in the team is the next step. Paying attention to relationships and building strong interpersonal ones helps you and the team, both. Ultimately, we need to work on building community. Abstract of the article: "Despite the need for and relevance of leadership skills to the success of medical trainees and healthcare professionals, few medical schools offer formal leadership training during the preclinical years. Where such curricula exist, we have found few schools that intentionally incorporate key principles of lifestyle medicine critical to short- and long-term career development. We describe a novel relationship-centered leadership curriculum, grounded in a conceptual framework of emotional intelligence and incorporating key principles of lifestyle medicine, first piloted in 2019 and now in its fourth year of existence. In comparing pre- and post-course self-evaluations on a 5-point Likert scale, students (n = 19) reported increased competencies in Self (3.12 vs 4.20, P < .001), Teams (3.06 vs 4.00, P < .001), and System (2.55 vs 3.55, P < .001) domains. Qualitative responses demonstrated that a vital strength of the course was its direct relevance and immediate applicability to students’ personal and professional roles and goals. Results provide encouraging support for using a relationship-centered leadership framework that incorporates core elements of lifestyle medicine and emotional intelligence to facilitate medical students’ leadership development, as related to leading oneself and in dynamic relationships with others (e.g., with leaders, colleagues, patients, and within communities, teams, and systems). #lifestylemedicine #leadership #MedEd #medicaleducation #MedTwitter #medicalschools #medicalstudents
