Abstract

This is the last in the current series of articles considering various elements of effective management. Fiona Westwood has already looked at managing conflict, influencing people and doing deals. This article looks at one of the major causes of frustration for any organisation--the amount of time people spend in meetings and the limited value that such time investment produces.

The successful journal club.

Journal club is a structured meeting that is required at a residency program, which is designated to train residents in the necessary skills to evaluate and apply scientific literature critically to clinical decision making. A successful journal club is one in which residents develop competency in evaluating the scientific literature for evidence-based answers that can be applied to clinical questions. The objective in establishing a successful journal club is to build a forum for residents to formulate answers to their clinical questions through the development of essential critical appraisal skills. This article discusses the setting, format, content, and purpose of a successful journal club.
