A well-known disparity in medicine is the paucity of women in high-level leadership positions. Despite the increase of women in medicine, there has not been a proportional increase in the representation in leadership roles. Especially mid-career, accomplished, passionate women are leaving medicine for a variety of reasons. One aspect lacking in the current pipeline of advancing women in medicine is an emphasis on defining the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to be a capable leader and providing skills and leadership training for
those women who are early to mid-career. While the development of leaders is only one facet of a highly complex issue that requires multiple solutions, leadership development programs can be an effective way to fill the pipeline of leaders proactively, and a focus on early to mid-career physicians is essential to support and promote women in medicine and close the leadership gender gap
