Abstract
From mammographic screening guidelines to resident work hour regulations, public policy affects every aspect of the practice of radiology and ultimately determines how radiological care is delivered to patients. Shaping public policy through advocacy is therefore critical to ensure patient access to equitable, high-quality radiological care. In advocacy, individual practicing radiologists and radiology trainees can increase the scope of their influence by collaborating with professional radiology societies. When radiology trainees participate in organized radiology advocacy, they learn about regulatory and legislative issues that will affect their careers, and they learn how to effect policy change. Radiology societies in turn benefit from trainee involvement, as engaging trainees early in their careers leads to more robust future participation and leadership. To encourage trainee involvement, radiology societies can engage individual residency programs and medical student radiology interest groups, invest in trainee-focused events, and maximize the number of positions of responsibility open to trainees. To circumvent the barriers to participation that many trainees face, radiology societies can make meeting proceedings free and available through virtual mediums. Through active collaboration, trainees and professional societies can help assure a bright future for radiologists and patients in need of radiological care.

Li Y, Li S, Yang K, Liu Y, Chen L, Chen J, Wen X, Ji T, Chen K, Wu L, Ji X, Lu J. Transformational leadership competency: a cross-sectional study of medical university graduates in China. Ann Med 2023; 55:2288307. [PMID: 38056001 PMCID: PMC10836284 DOI: 10.1080/07853890.2023.2288307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the transformational leadership competency of graduates from one medical university in China and its influencing variables. METHOD From 2020 to 2021, 851 medical graduates from seven hospitals affiliated with the Capital Medical University participated in this survey. The authors conducted a cross-sectional study to assess transformational leadership competency, particularly from three aspects, including values, Emotional Intelligence (EI) abilities, and behaviors using the socially responsible leadership scale (SRLS), emotionally intelligent leadership, and student leadership practices inventory (EILI and SLPI). RESULTS The SRLS scores were medium except for 'controversy with civility'. The EILI scores were medium. The SLPI scores were high except for 'enable others to act' and 'encourage the heart'. The influencing variables of SRLS, EILI, and SLPI were serving as student cadres, serving longer than two semesters (p = 0.01, 0.02 in EILI and SLPI), joining student organizations, participating in social practice, voluntary service (p = 0.001 in SLPI), in training classes for student cadres (p = 0.02, 0.01, 0.02 in SRLS, EILI, and SLPI), and attending lectures on leadership (except for indicated, p < 0.001). Regression analysis showed that attending lectures on leadership was associated with high SRLS, EILI, and SLPI scores (p = 0.04, SRLS; p < 0.001, others), and SRLS and EILI scores could affect SLPI score (F = 2674.44, p < 0.001, R2 = 0.86). CONCLUSIONS Medical graduates' transformational leadership competency at the Capital Medical University was medium measured from values, EI abilities, and behaviors. Group analysis indicated that knowledge learning, organizational involvement, and social/community involvement were associated with leadership capacity building, meanwhile, leaders' values and EI abilities would affect their behaviors, suggesting medical graduates should undertake leadership training from both knowledge learning and practicing.

Burn E, Waring J. The evaluation of health care leadership development programmes: a scoping review of reviews. Leadersh Health Serv (Bradf Engl) 2022; ahead-of-print.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this paper is to report a scoping review of reviews which investigated HLDP evaluations to determine: how the conceptualisation of leadership development programmes (HLDPs), and despite growing calls for robust evaluations of their pedagogic design, delivery and effectiveness, there are concerns regarding the quality of data associated with their evaluation. This scoping review of reviews investigated the reporting of HLDP evaluations to determine: how the conceptualisation of leadership underpinning HLDPs influence their evaluation; how the pedagogical approaches within HLDPs influence their evaluation; and the evaluation designs and measures used to assess HLDPs. DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH The scoping review was conducted on reviews of HLDPs. Searches were performed on four databases and on the grey literature. Data were extracted and a narrative synthesis was developed. FINDINGS Thirty-one papers were included in the scoping review of reviews. A great deal of heterogeneity in HLDPs was identified. Evaluations of HLDPs were affected by poor data quality, and there were limitations in the evidence about "what works". Leadership was conceptualised in different ways across HLDPs, and consequently, there was a lack of consistency as to what is being evaluated and the methods used to assess HLDPs. ORIGINALITY/VALUE This review of reviews summarises the current evidence on the evaluation of HLDPs. Evaluations of HLDPs need to explicitly account for the complexity of health systems, how this complexity impacts on the development and articulation of leadership practice, and how the underlying conceptualisation of leadership and the associated theory of change articulate a set of assumptions about how HLDPs support leaders to affect change within complex systems.
