摘要：Rapid changes in disease pattern, advancement of medical technology and introduction of new treatment modalities demand continuous modifications in medical education. This can be a daunting task unless all stakeholders engaged in medical education are convinced that such changes are necessary to ensure the efficiency of the end product. The task of leading a group of academics who themselves are leaders and have their personal targets in the direction of a common goal can be a challenge. This, however, becomes the primary responsibility of a Medical Dean. In order to achieve this, Dean has to have leadership qualities and particularly good communication skills. Whether these factors are taken into consideration in selecting a Dean is questionable. Further, no attempts are made to enhance leadership qualities and other attributes that a Dean should possess among potential candidates of deanship.
