Immersive Leadership Training for Physicians: Comparing Retrospective Pre- and Post-Test Virtual vs in-Person 6-Month Follow-Up of Learning.

Either virtual or in-person leadership training can result in long-term (6-month) significant retention and application of knowledge and skills in physicians. While limited in size, this study suggests that in-person experiences seem to foster more effective bonds and also greater willingness to participate in post-program follow-up. Physicians find equity-centered leadership training to impact their subsequent communication and leadership practices and they report career benefits even in 6-month follow-up.
