Leadership Skills Development: Managerial Decision Making: Pitfalls and Remedies : Effective healthcare institutions need effective leaders, however, leadership development among healthcare professionals is commonly neglected. Few countries/institutions provide such leadership training as part of the medical curriculum. Most young medical professionals are prepared to make medical decisions but have to learn their leadership skills almost by trial-and-error as they are handed positions of responsibility. This session will be open to all congress attendees and will focus on managerial decision-making.)
