1 BRIAN A. MOORE, MD CANDIDATE FOR NOMINATING COMMITTEE (PRIVATE PRACTICE) What do you see as the priorities of the Nominating Committee in selecting the future leaders of our Academy? We are all leaders in our families, communities, and hospitals - so it is truly a humbling experience to be considered for the Nominating Committee. Tasked with promoting the Best of the Best, the Nominating Committee seeks to uphold its responsibility to our membership by identifying those among us who have the dedication and drive to lead our profession through a dynamic period in healthcare. As a section-head at Ochsner Medical Center, a resident educator, an active member of various committees of the AAO-HNS, and a former military officer, I have been privileged to not only study the principles of leadership but also to struggle through its practice. The Academy deserves leaders with the vision to recognize the challenges that lie ahead; wisdom to listen to its diverse membership; humility to promote a collaborative approach to overcoming these obstacles in concert with other stakeholders; devotion to service; grace to articulate the message and inspire us, and courage to uphold our core values, even when unpopular, in order to achieve the Academy s stated mission of excellence. These leaders must reflect the practice, subspecialty, geographic, and demographic diversity of our great specialty.

2 Please provide a one-page biographical sketch highlighting those areas which you want to share with the voting membership regarding your professional experiences. Please submit a statement and not a copy of the CV Name Brian A. Moore I am a second generation Otolaryngologist-Head and Neck Surgeon, and I have inherited my father s pride and love of this profession. After completing college and medical school in New Orleans at Tulane University, I was blessed with the opportunities to train in otolaryngology at Vanderbilt University and in Head and Neck Surgical Oncology Microvascular Reconstruction at MD Anderson Cancer Center. My clinical focus and research interest in aggressive cutaneous malignancies has been fostered by these experiences and by the mentorship of Dr. James Netterville, Dr. Brian Burkey, Dr. Randal Weber, and Dr. Robert Ossoff. As an officer in the United States Air Force and now as a member of a large multispecialty group practice, I have worked to develop high-functioning, multidisciplinary head and neck oncology teams in both the community and the major medical center settings. In my professional life, I have tried to foster collaboration rather than competition, particularly with regards to patient care and education. This approach served me well as the first otolaryngologist to train as a microvascular fellow with the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at MD Anderson that the program still continues is a testament to the patience and understanding of the faculty. I benefited greatly from my Air Force service, as I had the distinct privilege of taking care of our service members and their families not only stateside, but in a combat support hospital in Afghanistan. The Air Force placed me in positions of leadership early in my career, and I learned as Chief of Surgical Services at Eglin AFB to bridge the gaps between managers or policy makers in medicine and those who actually deliver the care. Similarly, by focusing on common goals and values in quality patient care and medical student and resident education, Ochsner Medical Center and Tulane University are able to successfully partner to train future otolaryngologists despite a background of institutional competition. I believe that the next few years will see tremendous change in the American healthcare system. The American Academy of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery will need agile, dynamic leaders who can protect and advance the interests of the field and its practitioners while balancing competing demands from other stakeholders and communicating the rationale behind organizational actions to all parties. My experiences in military and civilian private practice where education and quality care are paramount give me unique insight into the traits required of leaders in these challenging times, and I would be honored to serve the Academy on the Nominating Committee.
