摘要

Daniel J. Ben-y, MD is the 79th presi-dent of the American Academy of rthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS). In recent conversation, we discussed his major objectives during his leadership year at the Academy.In 2010, the Board of Directors of the AAOS updated the Academy's strategic plan with specific goals designed to enhance its mission in education, advocacy, research/quality, communication, membership, diversity, and unity. A governance structure with a clear presidential line of succession provides a platform for continuity and the mechanism to achieve these goals year after year.
