Abstract
Disease site leadership is predicated on knowledge, clinical expertise, and networking. Developing an expertise may require months to years to gain the necessary experience, and the largest gains can be expected in topics of high personal interest, areas where there is a large patient volume, or other institutional foci for which there is support or dedicated resources. Working with colleagues to educate, collaborate, or develop new areas of growth can provide personal satisfaction and expertise in a disease topic and contributes to specialized expertise. Harnessing opportunities through access to key stakeholders may enhance success and recognition. Continuing to connect with colleagues throughout and outside of the institution can lead to continued evolution and fulfillment.
