Stephanie Yarnell-Mac Grory, MD, PhD, assistant clinical professor of psychiatry, was presented with the HSM Leadership Award at Duke University Fuqua School of Business, where she graduated May 7 with an MBA (Global Executive MBA Program).
The award is given to a graduating student who has made a major contribution to the business school’s Center for Health Sector Management (HSM) – and the community – in terms of service and leadership. This HSM student is someone personally observed as a leader. This leader is someone of exemplary character and leadership who is confident, positive, and purposeful. He or she keeps the main goal in focus, leads by example, and is committed to excellence.
Yarnell-Mac Grory was nominated by her peers for the award who described her as “kind with high EQ, DQ, and IQ*,” that she “motivates all of those she works with to be better and is a shining example of everything we want from Fuqua alumni and the healthcare field.” She was also called out for her exemplary clinical, educational, policy, and legislative efforts, as well as her recent appointment to Board of Directors at UF College of Medicine.
Yarnell-Mac Grory completed her Adult and Adolescent Psychiatry residency at Yale School of Medicine. She also completed the Law and Psychiatry and Addiction Psychiatry fellowships at Yale and has remained on faculty within the Yale Department of Psychiatry.
