摘要:Purpose:To adapt to rapid and turbulent changes in the field of medicine,education,and society,medical school faculties need appropriate leadership. To develop leadership competencies through education,coaching,and mentoring,we need a leadership competency model. The purpose of this study was to develop a new leadership competency model that is suitable for medical school faculties in Korea. Methods:To collect behavioral episodes with regard to leadership,we interviewed 54 subjects (faculties,residents,nurses) and surveyed 41 faculties with open-ended questionnaires. We classified the behavioral episodes based on Quinn and Cameron's leadership competency model and developed a Likert scale questionnaire to perform a confirmatory factor analysis. Two hundred seven medical school faculties responded to the questionnaire. Results:The competency clusters that were identified by factor analysis were professionalism,citizenship,leadership,and membership to an organization. Accordingly,each cluster was linked with a dimension:self,society,team (that he/she is leading), and organization (to which he/she belongs). The clusters of competencies were:professional ability,ethics/morality,self-management, self-development,and passion;public interest,networking,social participation,and active service;motivating,caring,promoting teamwork,nurturing,conflict management,directing,performance management,and systems thinking;organizational orientation, collaboration,voluntary participation,and cost-benefit orientation. Conclusion:This competency model that fits medical school faculties in Korea can be used to design and develop selection plans, education programs,feedback tools,diagnostic evaluation tools,and career plan support programs.
