Following the success of our previous leadership workshops, AWE has gathered feedback to identify the most pressing challenges facing our members.
This workshop will tackle three critical themes:
- Accidental Leadership – navigating unexpected leadership roles
- Imposter Syndrome – overcoming self-doubt and building authenticity
- Work-Life Balance – juggling leadership with roles as carers, partners, and parents.
A thought piece from the Hult International Business School describes the accidental leader as someone who is “given the responsibility but often not the support. Given the title but not the training.” These individuals excel and gradually accumulate responsibilities until they find themselves unexpectedly leading others – often without the necessary support or development.
Many accidental leaders face imposter syndrome despite their successes. Others struggle to balance leadership responsibilities with their personal lives. This workshop aims to address these challenges by providing participants with scientifically-validated support and developmental training, empowering them to lead confidently and effectively.
This interactive workshop will be delivered through a combination of:
• Actionable Exercises – practical activities designed to enhance leadership skills
• Reflective Worksheets – tools for personal growth and self-awareness
• Dynamic Group Discussions – opportunities to share experiences and build supportive networks.
Educational Activities: 3.5 hours
Target Audience: Senior registrars/ED Consultants
