背景和假设：学术医学的领导职位缺乏种族和性别多样性。在2016年，学术家庭医学（CAFM）的理事会成立了一个领导力发展工作组，专门解决学术家庭医学领导之间缺乏多样性，特别是代表性不足的少数民族和妇女。方法：该工作组成立于2016年8月，成员来自每个CAFM组织代表种族，性别和学术立场的多样性。该小组于2016年8月至2017年12月举行会议。工作队审查了可用的领导力发展规划，并通过共识确定了对学术家庭医学系主任，项目主任，医学生教育主任，研究directors.CONSENSUS发展的关键领导职位的共同途径：工作队开发了一个模型，描述了可能的途径，在学术家庭医学的几个领导职位。此外，我们确定了一个多层面的指导团队的有意使用，成功地导航的路径，以leadership.CONCLUSIONS：有足够的机会，为领导力的发展，无论是在家庭医学组织和外部。尽管如此，个人在确定和获得适当机会方面可能需要援助。通往领导的道路不是线性的，领导者可能会在家庭医学的每个领域担任不止一个职位。作为一个领导者的发展是通过形成一个多层面的导师团队大大增强。
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Leadership positions in academic medicine lack racial and gender diversity. In 2016, the Council of Academic Family Medicine (CAFM) established a Leadership Development Task Force to specifically address the lack of diversity among leadership in academic family medicine, particularly for underrepresented minorities and women.APPROACH: The task force was formed in August 2016 with members from each of the CAFM organizations representing diversity of race, gender, and academic position. The group met from August 2016 to December 2017. The task force reviewed available leadership development programming, and through consensus identified common pathways toward key leadership positions in academic family medicine-department chairs, program directors, medical student education directors, and research directors.CONSENSUS DEVELOPMENT: The task force developed a model that describes possible pathways to several leadership positions within academic family medicine. Additionally, we identified the intentional use of a multidimensional mentoring team as critically important for successfully navigating the path to leadership.CONCLUSIONS: There are ample opportunities available for leadership development both within family medicine organizations and outside. That said, individuals may require assistance in identifying and accessing appropriate opportunities. The path to leadership is not linear and leaders will likely hold more than one position in each of the domains of family medicine. Development as a leader is greatly enhanced by forming a multidimensional team of mentors.
