Soft skills for personal development of the surgeon for improved outcomes for patient and surgeon.

Abstract

© 2023 National Journal of Maxillofacial Surgery | Published by Wolters Kluwer Medknow I am honored to receive an invitation from the National Journal of Maxillofacial Surgery (NJMS) team to write this piece for its readers. Having considered several focus topics affecting the surgical fields including our unique specialty, I struggled to find one that would suitably stimulate the readership—especially from a technical and evidence perspective, one that has not already been discussed ad nauseam in the many forums and the wide‐ranging literature we all can access.
