Does educational climate seem unrelated to leadership skills of clinical consultants responsible of postgraduate medical education in clinical departments?
This study found no relation between the educational climate and the leadership skills of the clinical consultants responsible for postgraduate medical education in clinical departments with the instruments used.

Further studies are needed to explore, how heads of departments and other factors related to the clinical organisation could influence the educational climate.
