However, PA schools, unlike medical or nursing schools, currently do not consistently include formal or informal leadership training, and the pathway to leadership for PAs is not always clearly delineated (1). We developed a leadership curriculum with overarching aims of fostering a leadership mindset in PA students and providing them with the tools to begin their leadership trajectory (2,3). These tools, rooted in transformational leadership philosophy, provide students with a framework that will serve them in their immediate clinical settings as well as plant the seeds for future leadership endeavors, and enable successful collaboration in both leadership and team settings. Students will also have an opportunity to hear firsthand experiences from community PA leaders during a leadership panel.}, number = {IR}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.6083/bpxhc41854}, recid = {41854}, address = {2023-09-07}, }
