%X It is increasingly apparent that many of the most pressing problems of our time are too formidable, complex, and resistant to change to be solved by individuals and individual organizations acting alone. In family medicine, we have our share of these vexing issues¡ªwhat are often termed ¡°wicked problems.¡±1 Among them are getting more medical students to select family medicine as a career, transforming the primary care practice model, ensuring joy in practice, maintaining comprehensive scope of practice, increasing the racial and ethnic diversity of the specialty and of medicine as a whole, and asserting leadership by departments of family medicine in the nation¡¯s academic health centers
