“…These findings stand in line with results from previous studies, in which gender disparities were identified in executive boards of national societies of emergency medicine, internal medicine and intensive care medicine (8,9,7).…”

“…Comparing the proportion of women presidents of national cardiology societies (13%) to other medical specialties as previously published by our study group (8,9,7,10) for presidents of national emergency medicine (18% women presidents), internal medicine (20%), intensive care medicine (15%) and nephrology societies (45%), only nephrology has a significantly higher women representation (chi-square 36.5, p<0.001). However, cardiology societies appear to have the lowest proportion of women presidents as compared to other specialties.…”

“…National societies are important regional stakeholders to support training programs, foster academic careers and ensure equality on a national level. However, in 2021, women underrepresentation in presidents and board members of national societies was detected for example in intensive care and emergency medicine (7,8). In view of these results, it was the aim of this study to analyze gender distribution of executive board members and presidents of national cardiology societies affiliated with the ESC in 2022 in order to identify another aspect of the cardiology gender gap and potential to improve equality.…”

“…Relatively recently, diversity and inclusion have been made an explicit item on the agenda of many management and administrative bodies, 100 , 101 , 102 where there is an overrepresentation of white individuals in many medical specialties. 103 Diversity and inclusion are not only limited to ethnicity, sex, and/or gender but may also include personality, neurodiversity, sexual orientation, and religious beliefs.…”

Recently, the importance of efficient and effective health care has been recognized, especially during the acute phase of the Coronavirus Disease‐2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic. Intensive care units (ICUs) have faced an immense workload, with massive numbers of patients being treated in a very short period of time. In general, ICUs are required to deliver high‐quality care at all times during the year. At the same time, high‐quality organizational goals may not be aligned with the interests, motivation, and development of individual staff members (eg, nurses, and doctors). For management of the ICU, it is important to balance the organizational goals and development of the staff members (“their human capital”), usually referred to as human resource management. Although many studies have considered this area, no holistic view of the topic has been presented. Such a holistic view may help leadership and/or other stakeholders at the ICU to design a better learning health system. This pragmatic review aims to provide a conceptual model for the management of ICUs. Future research may also use this conceptual model for studying important factors for designing and understanding human resources in an ICU.

“…Concerning members and presidents of national societies, women were underrepresented, for example, in internal medicine and intensive care. 1,2 Additionally, women were underrepresented in editorial boards of scientific emergency medicine journals and among speakers at large conferences. 3,4 Female emergency physicians were underrepresented in leading positions, worked more hours, and were paid less than their male colleagues.…”
