    The Royal College – Our Professional Home An independent review on diversity and inclusion for the Royal College of Surgeons of England An exciting call for radical change Introduction ‘The President of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (RCS England) Professor Neil Mortensen, asked me to lead this Review soon after he was elected to the Presidency. His decision was triggered by vocal expressions of dissatisfaction from a significant part of the surgical profession, largely women and people of colour. The most recent elections to leadership positions had produced a line-up of senior White men – all very distinguished – who seemingly came from very similar social backgrounds. It was felt that the College was not demonstrating itself to be a diverse and inclusive institution, reflecting the society in which we live or the changing profession of surgery. Any examination of the statistics show that the complaints are well founded. The reputation of the College is affected by such negative feelings, as disaffection can cause long-term loss of confidence in an organisation. The homogeneous nature of the leadership was not a in the diplomatic world and other parts of the civil service, new occurrence. In its long and illustrious history, the on corporate boards, in sport and entertainment.

  • The Royal College Program Directors Handbook: a Practical Guide for Leading an Exceptional Program Preface
    The Royal College program directors handbook: A practical guide for leading an exceptional program Preface Consider the following tale, which will be familiar to many new program directors (PDs) in Canada: When I became a PD in 2000, I thought I knew what I was getting into. I was expecting a rewarding, challenging leadership position in education that would allow me to set a direction and provide support for a future generation of doctors. It turned out to be all of this and more; I’m thankful that the rewards far exceeded my expectations and the challenges were mitigated by a strong support network and resident cohort. But I admit that my initial experiences in the job were largely a trial by fire. I had a brief handover from my predecessor and was given a new book on the “newest thing” in residency education — CanMEDS 2000 — but other than that I was set adrift to run the residency program and seek help when needed. One resource that proved very helpful was the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada’s annual workshop for new PDs and accreditation surveyors. I was assigned to the surveyor workshop by mistake; it turned out to be very useful, as our accreditation visit was scheduled to take place in 8 short months’ time, and I had still received no instruction on the nuts and bolts of running a program. PDs come to their positions in a variety of ways. way from peers, support staff and residents. Our own Some PDs seek out the role; others are invited to take experiences, then, prompted our desire to help others the job and either embrace the opportunity or accept prepare for their PD roles.

    To: Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London New London Plan GLA City Hall London Plan Team Post Point 18 London SE1 2AA We welcome the opportunity to comment on the New London Plan and would be grateful if you could confirm receipt of this reponse. About us: The World’s First Planned Cultural Quarter Shared history and mission The Exhibition Road Cultural Group is a partnership of 18 leading cultural and educational organisations in and around Exhibition Road, South Kensington. Together these organisations comprise the world’s first planned cultural quarter, half of which falls within the Knightsbridge Neighbourhood Area. Created from the legacy of the Great Exhibition of 1851, and affectionately known as “Albertopolis”, this cultural quarter was established by the Royal Commission for the Great Exhibition of 1851 for the purpose of “increasing the means of industrial education and extending the influence of science and art upon productive industry”. Across its estate of 87 acres in South Kensington, the Royal Commission established three of the world’s most popular museums: The Natural History Museum, Victoria and Albert Museum, Science Museum and three colleges dedicated to arts, science and design: Imperial College London, the Royal College of Music and Royal College of Art and the most famous concert venue in the world, the Grade l listed Royal Albert Hall which was created originally as the Central Hall of Arts and Sciences. Over past century and a half, these institutions have been joined by other organisations that share the mission of promoting innovation and learning through the arts and science, including the Goethe Institut, Royal Geographical Society, Institute Français and the Ismaili Centre.
