ELAM News to Know
The 2017 ELUM Professional Development Program: A time to reenergize and reconnect
Close to 100 ELUMs convened at the Four Seasons Hotel in downtown Denver on January 12 for the annual Professional Development Program. With a welcome cocktail reception that overlapped with the last day of Session II of the current Fellowship, new and old acquaintances alike were able to connect and reconnect. Two full day sessions left attendees with renewed focus and motivation to bring back to their institution.
Some of our ELUMs put it best:
I loved this conference: it came at a great time in my life when I needed reenergizing. I came away recommitted to my job and leadership skills and with a renewed sense of connection to my fellow ELUMs. I highly recommend it to everyone!
Every session was well worth attending! Many gems to take back for the year! Can't wait to attend next year!
Amazing networking with a group of smart women from almost a full generation of ELAM.
Thank you to everyone who attended and helped to make the event a success!

Articles of Note
Forbes, January 10, 2017:
IBM's global study of over 1,500 CEOs revealed that CEOs are acutely concerned with the pace of change in today's world and figuring out how to run organizations ill prepared to deal with that change. As a leader, you can't accurately predict the future, but you can increase the capacity of your organization to deal with an uncertain one. To do that, you'll need to hone one skill to near super-power levels: coaching.
Whether you call it coaching or not, you're probably used to helping the people under you to skill up. By intentionally applying good coaching techniques to your work with others, you can succeed in decreasing their reliance on you. With the right approach, you can coach employees to become more resilient, stay grounded in ambiguity and learn through failure.
AAMC News, January 18, 2017:
Study Finds Diversity of Family Medicine Faculty Has Not Kept Pace With Students
The diversity of medical school faculty has failed to keep up with the demographics of students and the overall American population-a potential barrier to increasing the number of women and minority physicians. A study focusing on family medicine faculty by the AAMC and the American Academy of Family Physicians' Robert Graham Center has been published in the Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine. A related AAMC Analysis in Brief published in December examined the diversity of medical school faculty overall.

The Chronicle of Higher Education, Academe Today, January 20, 2017:
