FLEXcast #6 - Negotiations
<p>In this installment of FLEXcast, we are talking about negotiations. It’s an intimidating topic for most. Do I deserve to ask for what I want and need? Can I advocate for myself and my career? Are there things I can do to increase my chances of success? The answer to all of these questions is YES! Listen to our conversation with Charlene Grabowski, retired VP and GM of GE Healthcare for the Western US and Canada and an executive coach involved in leadership development for academic faculty around the country.</p> <p>Articles for this episode:</p> <p><a href="https://facultyaffairs.medicine.arizona.edu/sites/default/files/practical_tips_for_negotiating.pdf"><strong>Practical Tips for Negotiating</strong></a></p> <p><a href="https://facultyaffairs.medicine.arizona.edu/sites/default/files/principles_and_tactics_of_negotiations.pdf"><strong>Principles and Tactics of Negotiation</strong></a></p> <p>FLEXfun: El Tour de Tucson has been rescheduled to April 10, 2021.</p> <p><a href="https://eltourdetucson.org/">https://eltourdetucson.org/</a></p>

FLEXcast #5 - Mentorship
<p>“The delicate balance of mentoring someone is not creating them in your own image, but giving them the opportunity to create themselves.”</p> <p>— Steven Spielberg</p> <p>In this episode, we are talking about mentorship. As faculty in academic medicine, we know that mentors are critical to our success. We also know that our needs are best met when we have a network of mentors. Acknowledging that many of our best mentoring relationships happen naturally, we also need some structure to provide a foundation and a clear understanding of our roles and expectations. We hope you enjoy this discussion and find some helpful information to enhance your role as both a mentor and mentee.</p> <p>Special thanks to our guests <strong>Dr. Kathy Smith, MD,</strong> Assistant Dean of Student Affairs, Director of GME Faculty Development, Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and <strong>Dr. Rajesh Khanna</strong>, Professor in the Department of Pharmacology.</p> <p>Thanks to Dr. Mel Anderson from the University of Colorado School of Medicine who presented these articles at his seminar for our faculty entitled <a href="https://facultyaffairs.medicine.arizona.edu/faculty-resources/programs-faculty/career-development/workshops">“Weaving a Web: Effecting Mentoring Relationships”</a> on September 17th, 2020. </p> <p>The articles we are talking about are:</p> <p><a href="https://facultyaffairs.medicine.arizona.edu/sites/default/files/mentorship_malpractice.pdf">Mentorship Malpractice</a></p> <p><a href="https://facultyaffairs.medicine.arizona.edu/sites/default/files/mentee.missteps.jama_.2017.pdf">Mentee Missteps: Tales from the Academic Trenches</a></p>

We want to share our conversation, our experiences, and some things we’ve learned. We’re all learning…and we all need to start having conversations like this.</p> <p>We hope you find this discussion helpful, enlightening, maybe even uncomfortable.
