Overview:

What makes a good leader? How does one go about becoming a leader? Experience tells us that some people seem to have a natural gift towards leadership, while others must truly work at developing leadership skills. We hope to demonstrate that strong leaders can be both cultivated from experience- privately lived or learned from others. For this presentation, we hope to deepen our understanding of leadership, and in turn make ourselves better leaders by analyzing a series of “leadership vignettes” offered by our family and community medicine faculty.

Objectives:

  1.  Explain the importance and history of PreParticipation Evaluations (PPEs).
  2.  Review the components of a PPE.
  3.  Discuss clearance decisions for athletes with common conditions.
