Abstract
Medical educators face wicked (complex) problems. Few faculty development (FD) programs exist specifically designed for rural physicians. Memorial University created the 6for6 program, a longitudinal FD program in foundational research skills for rural physicians. This work explores the use of the Adaptive Action Method in tackling wicked problems in rural faculty development.
