Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School: Educational Transplant

The case illustrates the effort of Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School's pioneering faculty in transplanting the U.S Duke University School of Medicine curriculum to the Singapore context, where the British style of medical education had been dominant. The case examines the challenges, skepticism, and eventual support from both internal and external stakeholders.

The Zuellig Family Foundation: A Bridge to a Better Future

This case illustrates the success of the Zuellig Family Foundation's health care programme in bridging the healthcare access divide between the rich and the poor in the Philippines in 2008. Within four years, the Foundation's president led the foundation to complete a health care program to transform the dysfunctional health care system, with the ambition of rolling out the program country-wide.

Leadership Tools

Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire and Report

A 360 degree assessment tool focusing exclusively on critical leadership behaviours required for competitive performance in today’s organisations. The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire™ (MLQ—also known as MLQ 5X short or the standard MLQ) measures a broad range of leadership types from passive leaders to leaders who give contingent rewards to followers, to leaders who transform their followers into becoming leaders themselves.

The MLQ identifies the characteristics of a transformational leader and helps individuals discover how they measure up in their own eyes and in the eyes of those with whom they work. Success can be measured through a retesting program to track changes in leadership style.

This report reviews your scores on the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire™: Actual vs. Ought (MLQ A/O). The MLQ measures a full range of leadership styles to achieve optimal outcomes for the organization. The report provides feedback on how you perceive the frequency of leadership behaviors you exhibit, as well as the leadership behaviors you feel you should be exhibiting. The MLQ measures leadership styles which may be grouped under three broad categories. Each category differs in the nature of the leadership behaviors and in expected outcomes.
