What is it about?
This article is a summary of the work of the Birmingham Medical Leadership Society. We have explained why we set up a lecture series and intercalated degree in medical leadership for medical students. We wanted to show that it is possible to make this topic interesting and engaging for a general audience, and that medical students are interested in learning about how to run and improve health services.

Perspectives
For me, this article is the summation of 4 years of work. To see the Birmingham Medical Leadership Society go from a group of students to a society that has hosted 20 events and helped found a new degree programme has been an amazing journey.
