James H. Scully, Jr., M.D., medical director of the American Psychiatric Association, 2003-2013

摘要

When Mel Sabshin, then APA's Medical Director, wanted to correct his young Director of Education, Jay Scully, he would suggest that the two of them take a walk to Franklin Square, across 14th Street from where APA was headquartered at the time, in Washington, D.C. At first Jay dreaded those walks, and then he came to appreciate that they were intended to teach him what he would soon need to know. The walks in 1992 through 1996 forever shaped Jay's approach to how to work effectively in organizations, including our American Psychiatric Association, where his tenure ends this month after more than 10 years.
