The challenges faced in the current practice of medicine can result in losing sight of the joy in the career of medicine.  Lack of satisfaction with career can result in underperformance or early termination of a career.  Physicians also have a high level of enmeshment where personal identity is highly tied to career and therefore career satisfaction can affect satisfaction with life.  This talk further explores these concepts and discusses concepts for maintaining career (and life) fulfillment. 

 

Speaker: Dr. Chip Roth

In our increasingly complex working environments, one of the few certainties is that all professionals will depart from their roles and responsibilities at some point. When leaders are prepared to transition out of their role and someone is prepared to transition into the role, all impacted parties' benefit. Yet, we often see abrupt, unplanned transitions in leadership that negatively impact others by creating a stressful work environment, disruptions in learning and mistrust of the system. In this interactive session, we will explore the utilization of succession planning for leaders, when it should be used, why you should engage in the succession planning process early, and how it can support your professional transitions. In small groups, participants will reflect and discuss their professional transition experiences, explore different models of succession planning, and receive materials that will allow them to create an effective succession plan strategy.
