Abstract

Abstract : Introduction: Formal training in team leadership is not taught in biomedical research graduate training programs or medical schools. Methods: We piloted a Leadership Training Workshop for graduate biomedical and medical students enrolled in our Interprofessional Research Design Course. Results: The Kane–Baltes self-efficacy survey demonstrated improved leadership skills (median scores pretraining and post-training were 71 and 76.6; paired t -test, p =0.04). Conclusions: Most students demonstrated significant improvement in self-awareness pertaining to their own innate leadership styles.
