Opinion-Leader Development

The typical international or regional opinion leader in any given field of medicine is clearly someone already recognised as an expert. However, to varying degrees this person is still seeking to develop the presence, the requisite communication skills and the leadership mentality to realise their potential influence within and beyond their profession.

To move opinion leaders into realising their potential influence, PPRG has developed three core modules designed for clinicians :

• presentation skills
• leadership dynamics
• making the media work for you

These modules are put together and delivered by experts in the combined fields of personal
and leadership development, communication skills, and the media.

Training Approach – a combination of :

• high quality professional training that is insightful and tailored to meet the needs
  of the participants.
• a style that stimulates interaction & participation
• training content that is modelled as well as delivered
• use of self assessment, peer and tutor feedback
• use of video to capture performance
• specialist one-to-one coaching to build confidence
• learning that is experimental and fun
• excellent technical back-up

Each of the core development modules is made up of a 2-day intensive workshop,
supported by one-to-one follow-up coaching for participants.
