Hi everyone,
I've been contemplating leadership this weekend. True leaders inspire us to:
Leaders aren’t necessarily big or strong,
And, when necessary, they challenge authority,
Leaders treat everyone with respect. They are kind, and wise, and know many things. They model excellence, embrace diversity, and express themselves beautifully. They are creative, funny, generous, and full of energy. True leaders lift us, and teach us, and kvell when we succeed.
This week we will begin to choose our Chief Residents for the 2018-19 academic year. Tomorrow morning, Brett will distribute a survey listing eligible PGY2s (I.e., those not short tracking). Please identify the residents you believe epitomize kindness, honesty, intelligence, and commitment to high ideals. We are fortunate, as always, to have many more qualified candidates than positions. Your input is essential, so vote and share your thoughts by January 31.
Enjoy your Sunday,
Mark
