This article addresses Jadresic's quandary (1992) on management training. Learning about management requires the same process as learning about medicine; it is not just another topic or qualification to add to a CV. Doctors need to incorporate management skills into their everyday working lives to ensure the effective delivery of care to their patients. All trainees manage. They organise duty rotas by negotiating with colleagues, they prioritise their clinical workload etc., so they have a sound management base.
