- Book Synopsis
- This book provides insights into the meaningful milestones of leaders and world experts in the field of movement disorders/neurology. Through the format of interview questions, it communicates the skills of key leaders in movement disorders. The interviewees are past and present leaders of the International Parkinson and Movement Disorders Society (IPMDS), which has grown from a young society into a strong successful organization. Their experiences reflect the nature of working in the global environment and diversity of this Society. The stories in this book have value that transcends a specific Society and will provide lessons in leadership that have application to many organizations around the world. This is a key resource for movement disorders experts, clinicians, scientists and young neurologists who are planning the next step in their career. It is also of interest to organizations who are facing the task of engaging and leading an international group of diverse participants.
