Abstract:
Postgraduate leadership fellowships are becoming more popular among doctors-in-training. The author completed a one-year leadership fellowship with the Health Education England (HEE), East Midlands. A personal reflective approach was used to present the experiences of the author following the completion of the fellowship programme. Using the PubMed database, a narrative literature review on the impact of postgraduate leadership development programmes on doctors-in-training was also performed, with a focus on published randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and systematic reviews. Personal benefits for the author were seen in the areas of improved leadership skills; completion of a postgraduate academic qualification; improvement of teaching skills; and honing of major trauma clinical skills. Furthermore, the literature review showed that there was high grade evidence from two randomised controlled trials, for the impact of such programmes in obstetrics/gynaecology simulation, and on team leadership for major trauma resuscitation. In addition, three systematic reviews reported positive impacts of such programmes at an individual level for participants' attitudes, knowledge and skills, with minimal evidence for the overall impacts on healthcare institutions.
