ELAM News to Know
ELAM at ADEA - a wonderful reception
ELAM staff members Diane Magrane, Christel Perkins, and Rosalyn Richman greeted dental ELUMs, current Fellows, and guests Monday afternoon, March 14th, at the ELAM-sponsored reception in Denver. The event was an opportunity to bring together those who were in Denver for the American Dental Education Association's annual session and prepare for the January 2017 ELUM professional development program. If we had awarded a prize for the most attendees from a single school, the University of Michigan School of Dentistry would have won. Dean Laurie McCauley was joined by ELUMs Margherita Fontana, Lynn Johnson, and Carol Ann Murdoch-Kinch, along with several guests. The evening prior, staff was joined by members of the University of Colorado ELUM program planning team who are putting together a program of practical and innovative sessions for January 12-14, 2017.
The reception, held at The Four Seasons, proved to be a delicious taste (pun intended) of what might be on the menu for next January's 2017 ELAM Winter Session and Alumnae Professional Development Program. We all enjoyed home-made ice cream and an assortment of toppings. If that doesn't tempt you to put the dates of January 12-14 on your calendar, then we don't know
what will!

American Council on Education, 2016:
First Round Review, March 9, 2016:
Knowledge @ Wharton, March 16, 2016:
Most people can master what it takes to be an effective manager. But we often don't appreciate how difficult that mastery is, experts say.
Knowledge @ Wharton, Weekend Edition, March 18, 2016:
What makes certain teams excel and others perform below par? In a new book, Committed Teams: Three Steps to Inspiring Passion and Performance, Mario Moussa, Madeline Boyer and Derek Newberry divulge the surprising secrets to developing a high-performance team and the common mistakes groups make that hinder their cooperation.
Jeffrey Klein, executive director of the McNulty Leadership Program at Wharton, recently spoke with Moussa, a Wharton Executive Education fellow, about his new book.
Linked In Pulse, March 19, 2016:
You are almost guaranteed to get the question "What's your current salary?" or "What are you earning now?" when you're looking for a new job.
You have to be ready to answer the question with a smile while keeping your personal salary-history information private.
Inside Higher Ed, March 23, 2016:
On each campus, we often consider a small group of people leaders, but leadership is a collective activity that requires creativity and initiative at every level of institutional work, writes Judith S. White.
Harvard Business Review, March 23, 2016:
Roughly 85% of corporate executives and board members are white men. This number hasn't budged for decades, which suggests that white men are continuing to select and promote other white men.
It is well known that people tend to favor and promote those who are similar to them - and that this in-group bias is problematic because it reinforces stereotypes and inequality. However, while it is a common tendency, not everyone is allowed to advocate for their own group. Sometimes when women and minorities promote their own group, it garners criticism from others.
Inside Higher Ed, March 24, 2016:
Nervous about a new leadership role? Review your scholarly skill set and prepare to apply it in a fresh context, says Elizabeth H. Simmons.
Knowledge @ Wharton, March 25, 2016:
A new book by Harvard University professor Iris Bohnet, What Works: Gender Equality By Design, argues that tweaking the ways companies identify, develop and promote talent can improve equality and diversity at a "shockingly low cost and high speed." In the following article, Knowledge@Wharton reviews key takeaways from Bohnet's book.

Check Out the Newest Addition to the GWIMS Toolkit Series!
Women's Leadership and the Impact of Gender outlines ways in which women, specifically underrepresented women in medicine, are not given the same opportunities in medicine and science as their male counterparts as well as ways in which institutions can better support this thriving population. Topics explored in this toolkit include: the "leaky" pipeline for women and URM faculty, the current gender climate in medicine and science, and institutional strategies to develop this thriving community of women leaders in academic medicine and science. Find out more about this toolkit on the GWIMS webpage here.

AAMC CFAS News, March 18, 2016:
And finally, if they don't make it in medicine, Broadway is calling! As reported on KevinMD, three students at University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine had (quite a bit) of fun creating Match Day musical theater. Definitely worth the watch.
