EMPOWERING THE ACADEMIC PHYSICAL THERAPY LEADERSHIP TEAM
Course Description
Many internal and external pressures faced by Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) & Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) program leaders compel all members of the team to act together to contribute purposefully to their collective goals and vision; yet too often traditional academic cultures under-emphasize or superficially encourage teamwork leading to siloed work that lacks the richness of deliverables produced collaboratively.
This course will focus on:
- Development of personal and shared leadership to achieve high performing faculty teams
- Creating collegial cultures within shared governance of DPT & PTA academic enterprises
- Building effective stewardship of the DPT & PTA curriculum
- Integration of academic administration that drives system efficiencies to enable more time and attention to lead people toward a common vision
