We describe our process of curriculum mapping, a method for auditing a curriculum, and its role in iterative leadership curriculum development.</p><p><strong>Aims: </strong>To show how to create a curriculum map for auditing a curriculum using examples from our leadership curriculum and to demonstrate its value through case examples of leadership education integration into existing resident experiences.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We selected our recent systematic review on current leadership curricula to prioritise leadership content given it was the basis for our initial curriculum. We identified existing resident experiences where training can occur. We use the selected content and training environments, layered with a modified Miller's pyramid, to construct a curriculum map.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Our curriculum map provides an example of curriculum auditing that reveals opportunities for leadership training that could be integrated into current residency experiences. We provide case examples of application.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>Effective leadership training should address critical topics and capitalise on experiential learning opportunities that exist within residency training programmes. The training must be seamlessly integrated into the demanding obligations of GME trainees, a process that can be achieved using curriculum mapping. Curriculum mapping can provide insight into a residency programme's leadership curriculum and create a direction for future leadership curriculum development.</p>","PeriodicalId":36677,"journal":{"name":"BMJ Leader","volume":" ","pages":"368-372"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140946268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These misbeliefs have consequences: people who mistakenly believe that exercise is the most important factor are more likely to be overweight or obese than people who correctly believe that diet is the primary cause of obesity. We argue that these misbeliefs are caused in part by systematic and multipronged communications efforts by the food and beverage industry-a phenomenon we term 'leanwashing'.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Not only does leanwashing require public policy intervention by the government, healthcare professionals also need to respond appropriately.

{"title":"Kindness: Poor cousin or equal kin to Compassion and Empathy in the Healthcare Literature? A Scoping Review.","authors":"Nicki Macklin, Laura Wilkinson-Meyers, Anthony Dowell","doi":"10.1136/leader-2024-001034","DOIUrl":"10.1136/leader-2024-001034","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Objective: </strong>This scoping review seeks to understand how kindness, compassion and empathy are defined and conceptualised within existing healthcare services literature.</p><p><strong>Introduction: </strong>Little consensus exists on how healthcare literature defines and conceptualises kindness. Kindness is often conflated with the terms compassion and empathy, which both have more prominence in the literature. However, evidence would suggest that all three terms are indeed different. To advance kindness as a key tenet of quality improvement and human experience outcomes in healthcare, a consensual definition must be established in the evidence base.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We reviewed published research identified using search queries across five databases and one search engine. Studies were included in this review if the definition, measurement and/or conceptualisation of kindness, empathy and/or compassion were stated objectives of the work and the research was directly relevant to healthcare settings.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>1348 results were screened, and with additional snowballing of some articles for relevant references, 107 progressed to full-text screening. Forty-two articles were subsequently included in this scoping review. By synthesising this evidence, we establish key commonalities and differences for kindness, compassion and empathy. We present a model for understanding how empathy, compassion and kindness can be viewed on a stimulus-response-action continuum. We also explore the definitional challenges expressed by many authors who call for these terms to be treated as separate concepts.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>This review evidence demonstrates that kindness, compassion and empathy have clear themes that stand them apart, and they occupy different places on the stimulus-response-action continuum. Importantly, kindness deserves its own place in literature as a primary concept, not as a second tier to compassion or empathy. By comparing each term, these positions are now highlighted. They can help us to more articulately define, conceptualise and value kindness, compassion and empathy for their unique contributions to the humanity of healthcare.</p>","PeriodicalId":36677,"journal":{"name":"BMJ Leader","volume":" ","pages":"293-304"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142792117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
