As your orthopaedic knowledge and expertise reach greater and greater heights, your responsibilities to your patients, business stakeholders, profession, and community have grown by leaps and bounds. Continuing to advance your capabilities to the leading edge of your profession is an ever-increasing challenge. The answer to this challenge is mastering the elusive concept of leadership, a continually evolving ideal. Your ability to continually develop as a leader will be the only constant means of overcoming new challenges in an ever-changing world.
The American Orthopaedic Association (AOA), in conjunction with Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management, has developed a forum that explores this critical issue of leadership in significant breadth and depth. The six-module series delivers powerful organizational and individual leadership concepts you need to stay on the leading edge of your profession.

Key Skills in a Rapidly Changing World As scientific and technological advancements are continually elevating the orthopaedic profession, leadership is the capability that will allow you to mobilize the dynamics of change to your advantage. In the rapidly changing professional environment, leadership is emerging as the critical issue for organizational and social evolution. It is the catalyzing force that unites all levels of effort into a cohesive unit to achieve common professional and social goals.
Dimensions of Leadership
In an increasingly complex and competitive world, you face both individual and organizational leadership challenges. Getting the most out of others takes not only vision but also skills in the areas of motivation, negotiation, communication, and crisis management. Leading your organization to maximum operational effectiveness requires you to sharpen your business acumen in the areas of finance, marketing, law, and human resources management. All six AOA~Kellogg Leadership Series modules will give you the leadership tools you need to further expand your strengths.
Research and Program Development The AOA~Kellogg Leadership Series is customized to address current events and problematic issues facing leaders today. Extensive research ensures that the educational agenda will effectively meet the needs of orthopaedic leaders today and into the 21st century.
The series is presented in module format. Each interactive, engaging module explores issues related to leadership and management.
The AOA has collaborated with highly regarded faculty in leadership and management graduate education from Northwestern University's world-renowned Kellogg School of Management to deliver skill development concepts designed specifically for you – the orthopaedic surgeon.
Pushing Your Knowledge to the Limit With considerable accomplishments in your career in orthopaedics, you still choose to look ahead. You drive change and make the world a better place. Accomplishing this and building your professional legacy takes leadership – but not all leadership qualities are inborn. The AOA~Kellogg Leadership Series delivers the knowledge you need to push your individual capabilities to the limit through leadership and management skill development. The modules are highly interactive to stimulate ideas as you share ideas with your peers and Kellogg's thought leaders in healthcare management, business decision making, and organizational theory. The Series features wide-ranging topics in leadership and executive practice, from developing leadership skills and driving organizational change to managing risk and crises to team-building and leveraging relationships. The exploration of these topics is intensive and thought-provoking, and you're sure to benefit by taking any or all of the modules in the Series.
