- Abstract
The elusive servant leadership model may ultimately create a "mass effect" whereby young doctors would feel compelled to act as dedicated mentors and role models of servant leadership to help guide and provide a moral compass to the next generation of physicians, in perpetuity. Keywords: Leadership; Servitude; Graduate medical education; Patient safety EN Leadership Servitude Graduate medical education Patient safety 1 4 4 02/16/22 20220214 NES 220214 I "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." i (John Emerich Edward Dalberg-Acton; 1834-1902). Medical students typically navigate the hardship and adversity of their training with the support of peers, and possibly with a student mentor from a class above, but rarely with the support of a designated physician mentor. The root cause of this apparent shortage of physician mentors for medical students is likely based on mutated values for practicing physicians in the modern age.
