Leadership Buzz

Description
The NCAP New Practitioner Forum (NPF) will be hosting a book club called The Leadership Buzz! Sessions will be facilitated by leaders across the state and members of the NPF Leadership Team. Leadership Buzz uses a 'book club' style format. Participants read a select set of books and participate in facilitated discussions. Pharmacy leaders in the state have volunteered to lead the discussions. Great way to strengthen your leadership knowledge and skills, while networking with others NCAP has a limited number of scholarships to offset the cost of books. The scholarships are on a first come first serve basis. Scholarship recipients are asked to participate in at least 4 of 5 book discussions.

Our Sponsor
Leadership Buzz is made possible by the generous sponsorship of Partnership for Safe Medicines.  We are very grateful to Shabbir Safdar and his team for their support.
