| 520 | 3 | |a Leadership and Challenges in Medical Physics: A Strategic and Robust Approach aims to present aspiring future Medical Physics leaders with effective, strategic and robust leadership skills in a world dominated by austerity economics, inter-professional competition and sometimes unchecked commoditization. Chapters are dedicated to healthy leadership and leadership styles, organizational politics, organizational psychology and negotiating skills. A compendium of SWOT themes provides leaders with a ready resource of possible ideas to trigger initial SWOT brainstorming and discussions when developing strategic plans with their own group or team. In addition, the script is peppered with reflection/discussion points or case studies to promote a systematic and well-thought out approach to strategic planning. The author, originator and leader of the EFOMP-EUTEMPE module MPE01 on leadership in Medical physics, promotes a can-do approach, and considers that his medical physics colleagues can make excellent leaders: 'We are a highly intelligent group, we have excelled as clinical scientists--I am very confident that we can excel in leadership too provided we give it the attention it deserves'.
