Developing effective leaders in medicine is an educational issue and requires a medical school culture that recognizes, develops, and rewards leadership. This study provides a qualitative evaluation of the initial outcomes from the Scholarly Excellence, Leadership Experiences, and Collaborative Training (SELECT) program, developed by the University of South Florida Health Morsani College of Medicine as a training model for physician leadership and patient-centered care based on emotional intelligence.
