Abstract

Surgeons are natural leaders, but leadership within academic surgery at various levels presents unique challenges. During the 2025 Academic Surgical Congress Hot Topics session on Leadership in Action, we discussed the real challenges faced by leaders in academic surgery across different levels. We review common themes and strategies employed when confronting these difficult situations, focusing on perseverance and creative problem solving.
