Leadership development in genetic counseling graduate programs

Leadership is emerging as an important component of health professional training. This study aimed to characterize current leadership development in accredited genetic counseling programs. Semi-structured interviews with program leadership were conducted to explore their program's leadership curricula and their perspectives on the meaning of leadership and its place in genetic counseling training. Eleven interviews were conducted and focused on seven categories related to study goals. Using the Framework Method, themes were generated within the predefined categories. Categories and themes included Defining Leadership (Positional vs Non-positional, Beliefs about Leadership, Role of Leadership in the Field of Genetic Counseling), Leadership Curricula Origin and Delivery (Course-based and Longitudinal, Explicit vs. Implicit, Origin of Material), Role of Faculty and Students (Role of Faculty, Expectations for Students and Qualities of Students), Skills, Evaluation, Priority (Potential for Improvement, Barriers and Facilitators), and Standards (Current Incorporation, Potential Incorporation). All programs had some form of leadership development, but many participants lacked a personal or program definition of leadership. Leadership development varied in curricula and delivery, but most were longitudinal and faculty-driven, with communication, teaching, advocacy, and collaboration as commonly taught skills. However, leadership development opportunities were rarely labeled as such, and participants identified labeling current leadership development as the top area for improvement. Labeling leadership development could improve assessment of current efforts and the ability to address gaps in leadership curricula. This would lay the foundation for necessary intentional leadership development, in turn helping us better advocate for our patients and the profession.
