Current Status of Leadership Education in Pharmacy Schools : the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, Canada, and Australia
Background: As the profession evolves, pharmacy schools worldwide are recognizing the importance of leadership education, starting at the undergraduate level. This study examined the status of leadership education in international pharmacy programs to propose strategies for effective implementation in Korean pharmacy schools. Methods: Leadership curricula from 34 pharmacy schools across 5 countries (the US, the UK, Canada, Japan, and Australia) were collected from school websites, syllabi, and articles using keywords such as “leadership” or “leader” and analyzed based on course titles, academic years taught, program types (e.g., required, elective, or cocurricular and extracurricular), credits, content, teaching and learning methods, and assessments. Results: Although most pharmacy schools teach pharmacy leadership, objectives, content, teaching methods, and assessment approaches vary. Most programs offer these as elective (50.0%) or required (38.5%) courses, both of which are more common than cocurricular or extracurricular formats (11.6%). The course content often includes leadership theories, competencies, self-development and reflection, organizational management, and global themes. Most courses are 1~2 credits and use various methods, including lectures, discussions, projects, case studies, and guest speakers. Conclusions: The findings identify substantial variation in leadership education across pharmacy curricula. To prepare students to take on leadership roles within the pharmacy profession and face a changing health care system, schools should recognize and raise awareness of the importance of leadership education and ensure their curricula also reflect this. Furthermore, these findings suggest the need to develop a systematic curriculum with practical and experiential learning methods to promote leadership competency.
