More on Women's Ways of Leading 

 

A new Message from the Director is up on our website, continuing Director Diane Magrane's previous message on Women's Ways of Leading. From this column:

 

Polarity Management in Academic Health Centers
and Universities
 

"In the previous column I discussed how the paradoxes of leadership and the incongruence of women in executive positions can play against women in academic leadership and how we discover ways in which they play in our favor by increasing our leadership capacities and skills. As a performance art, organizational leaders call upon a variety of skills and tools."

Vision2020, a national initiative advancing women's economic and social equality, held its third Annual Congress in Portland, Oregon on November 14 - 16. Diane Magrane represented the International Center for Executive Leadership in Academics (ICELA - the home of ELAM) on a panel titled, "Senior Leadership and Family Friendly Workplace Policies." Two other ELUMs were also there, serving as delegates from their home states: Pascale Lane (ELAM '03) and Arti Prasad (ELAM '05).

A correction from last week -

In last week's Edge, in the Calls for Applications, Nominations, Etc., we mentioned a webinar being held by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute(PCORI). We would like to clarify that while the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) hosted the event, PCORI is a unique entity, separate from the AAMC.

It is better to look ahead and prepare than to look back and regret.

In Praise of Female Friendships: Women Professors, Women Students, and Academic Generations
One evening last month, I met up with a small group of young women, and went home feeling uplifted, happy and inspired. These are women I have known for many years, and they are more than dear to me. They are funny, smart, witty and adventurous. We have traveled together, had countless dinner parties together, gossiped, and learned together. The common bond between us (aside from a mutual affinity) is that I was once their professor and they were once my students.
