Abstract

The Royal College of Physicians flagship chief registrar programme, an initiative launched nearly a decade ago was an innovative leadership and management programme for medical registrars which has now been rolled out to other specialties as well. The role has evolved over time and explores the broader aspects of the ways of workings in the UK National Health Service, the progression and impact for individuals, teams and organisations across the wider health economy both from the perspective of acute care as well as treating long-term conditions. A personal reflection on connecting the experiential learning attained from being a chief registrar and transitioning through this unique and distinctive programme towards embedding into the Consultant Physician job that encompasses broadening horizons into non-clinical managerial domains such as Clinical Lead from a service line perspective as well as academic Co-lead to widen the landscape of undergraduate medical school placements is illustrated in this article.
