Abstract
Physician engagement in leadership leads to better delivery of care to patients and is crucial for the advancement of knowledge, understanding, and wisdom in transplantation. Despite this, many physicians do not think of themselves as leaders and not much is offered in the form of training and education in leadership. Those who want to embark on a path to leadership sometimes do not know how to engage and where to start. This paper proposes 6 potential pathways to consider while embarking on leadership in transplantation. These are clinical innovation, research, education, administration, advocacy, and ethics. The profiles of some of the major leaders in the field of transplantation are highlighted to exemplify them. In addition, some other emerging pathways are presented. These proposed pathways are meant to serve as a guide on where to start but are interdependent. Last, how to choose from these options is described using techniques such as self-reflection, mentorship, peer engagement, and participation in leadership programs.
