Someone who is approachable and inspiring

I get the impression that clinical competence is a given in these situations and it is the other "stuff" that makes people positive role models....nowhere did the statement "they are a very good clinician but......" appear, it was always  an "and" where the but was.  I do wonder if we are self-selecting people based on the fact that we are on a teaching course and that there may be another group doing a very technical course where their role models are very practical based and none of these "soft" type of skills are valued....I hope not!

It is clear that lots of the role models in the medical field were chosen because they were highly knowledgeable / skilled. A common theme throughout all the role models chosen, however, is that it was their personal qualities or values which made them inspirational to others. Eg. hard-working, kind, enthusiastic. All these qualities are very difficult to formally teach and come from within each of the role models.
