Overview
Leadership and management skills are an important part of the day to day work of anaesthetists and medical leadership competencies are now firmly embedded in the CCT for Anaesthetics. Our overnight interactive course is designed to prepare anaesthetists for the leadership and management challenges they face in the workplace.

 

Tailored to the needs of senior trainees and newly appointed consultants, the course presents the realities of working in the modern NHS through real life examples and provides ample opportunity for active participation in non-clinical skills development. The format of mixed plenary sessions with workshops allows plenty of opportunity for discussion and facilitated exercises on specific skills e.g. negotiation, communication and personal development planning.

 

The course will be delivered by Dr Charles Ralston, Consultant Anaesthetist and past Medical Director of Birmingham Children’s Hospital, together with Ms Val Glenny, an independent consultant specialising in the development of organisations, teams and those leading them
