Healthcare Leadership Certificate Course Highlights the Importance of Self-Awareness
Despite blizzard-like conditions the day prior, more than 50 hospital leaders and faculty attended a presentation by
Barbara Capozzi, D.O. titled
Leadership Begins with Self-Awareness, which took place at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center on January 5, 2018. Through a series of interactive exercises, Dr. Capozzi engaged the audience in assessing their individual self-awareness, appreciating its value for leadership success, and offered information on how to utilize skills to promote optimal self-awareness and maximize concordance between one's own self-awareness and others' self-assessment. The program was well-received and generated discussions on initiating a second phase of the Healthcare Leadership Certificate Course to further enhance leadership skills.
