Leadership and Professional Skills Course for Early Career Psychiatrists: A Multinational Reflection

Year: 2025

Type: book-chapter

Abstract: An international Leadership and Professional Skills Course for Early Career Psychiatrists, led by Professor Norman Sartorius and Professor Sir Graham Thornicroft, was organized by the Association for the Improvement of Mental Health Programs, the Victor Babes University of Medicine and Pharmacy, and the Romanian Association of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy between 20 and 22 May 2024. Twenty early-career psychiatrists (ECPs) from eight European countries participated. This multinational perspective narrative written by three different nationality ECPs explores the significance of professional development courses through their unique experiences in Timisoara. The widespread availability of such educational activities that support professional development and leadership skills has the potential to increase collaboration between mental health professionals and improve mental health services.
