'You can make change happen': Experiences of emergency medicine leadership in the Pacific.
We sought to explore the activities, responsibilities and experience of leadership from Pacific emergency medicine (EM) doctors. Additionally, we explored knowledge, attitudes, leadership gaps and training insights for individual clinicians, and from a Pacific regional perspective. ⋯ Pacific EM doctors embrace leadership in their home countries and collaborate to drive positive change, build teams and gain recognition. As pioneers and advocates for EM, they bear high responsibility and risk burnout. These findings can inform future targeted leadership training and contribute to building Pacific regional networks for career sustainability and specialty advancement.
