Since 1852, APhaA has been supporting pharmaceutical scientists, student pharmacists, pharmacists, and pharmacy technicians. One of the many programs maintained by the organization is Lead360, a part of the APhA’s Leadership 360 Institute. The program is designed to provide pharmacists with management and leadership skills.
The Lead360: The Leader Within program is a live experience that prepares pharmacists for leadership roles within their community, profession, and among their health care teams. The in-person offering helps participants demonstrate their motivations to lead, recognize the importance of following their interests, and realize their leadership strengths and weaknesses.
The program features small groups and individualized attention, with one facilitator for every 12 participants. After the program is completed, professionals can continue their leadership development by participating in a three-month virtual experience. This experience includes 30-minute webinars to watch every other week, along with 60-minute small cohort calls with a facilitator and three to five other professionals.
