Article Synopsis
- The Early Career Women's Leadership Program (ECWLP) aims to increase women's representation in high-level leadership roles in academic medicine by enhancing their confidence and leadership skills through seminars over six months.
- After participating, women reported significant improvements in their leadership confidence, negotiation skills, and alignment of personal and professional goals, with many feeling reduced conflict between leadership aspirations and family obligations.
- Key barriers identified included lack of networking opportunities, transparency in leadership, and a competitive culture, while supportive elements of the program included self-reflection and tactical planning.
