How do dental faculty see themselves as leaders, teachers and mentors? How does that view compare to the perspectives of their colleagues and institutional leaders? This pilot study analyzes self-perception vs. reality by analyzing multisource feedback from ADEA Leadership Institute cohorts. Discover how differences in academic rank and gender highlight hidden challenges and inspire fresh paths for development. We will delve into the research findings and present actionable strategies for using external feedback to close self-awareness gaps, boost your leadership impact, and create a culture of ongoing reflection and improvement in your dental education community.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify their own self-assessment habits and areas in which receiving feedback could drive positive change.
  • Apply strategies that use external feedback to improve their leadership, teaching and mentoring effectiveness.
  • Design a culture of ongoing reflection and constructive feedback within their institution.
