Exploring Leadership Competencies in Academic Medicine with Kimberly A. Skarupski, PhD, MPH

Welcome back to the Faculty Factory podcast. In this week’s episode, we're exploring leadership competencies. You might not realize it, but as a faculty member in academic medicine, you are already a leader by virtue of your role.

Let’s take a moment to reflect on our leadership styles and how we can become better leaders for our patients, colleagues, and community.

To guide our discussion, we will introduce the leadership competencies framework developed by Johns Hopkins Medicine. This comprehensive matrix identifies 12 key competencies, each essential for effective leadership at different levels within academic medicine.

Are you looking for a copy of the Johns Hopkins Medicine Leadership Competencies matrix document as mentioned in this podcast? Simply email Dr. Skarupski at kskarupski@jhmi.edu and she will provide it to you.

Leadership competencies are vital in academic medicine, and they encompass a wide range of skills and behaviors. Reflecting on these competencies and assessing your proficiency in them can be a valuable step toward becoming a more effective leader in your academic medical career.
