Save the Date
for the
2017 ELUM Professional Development Program
Next Level Leadership:
Building personal and organizational capacity
January 12-14, 2017
The Four Seasons
Denver, CO
Please save the date to join us in Denver, CO this coming January, for the next ELUM professional development program, Next Level Leadership: Building personal and organizational capacity. Our Colorado hosts have put together an excellent opening with a presentation on inclusive leadership for an alumnae and Fellows dinner. The program opens the next morning with a panel of national leaders invited by and including ELAM facilitator Lily Marks to address what next level leadership looks like. In addition, you will have the opportunity to join workshops on communication skills, building ELAM/ELATE-like programs at home, and using systems engineering to improve health care.
Expect registration to begin in late summer, and keep an eye on the ELAM Edge and our website for more information in the coming weeks.
We hope to see everyone there!

Articles of Note
Inside Higher Ed, May 26, 2016:
Barbara McFadden Allen, Robin Kaler and Ruth Watkins describe a hypothetical but very common situation for many administrators today -- and offer some suggestions for how to tackle it.
AAMC CFAS News, May 27, 2016:
A new AAMC Analysis in Brief (AIB) presents data on full-time faculty, showing that in 2015, women faculty made up more than one-third of the U.S. full-time faculty workforce, with women of color making up 28 percent of all women faculty. As the report notes, "Emerging studies suggest that women of color may face unique barriers, including those related to the intersection of gender and race."
The Chronicle of Higher Ed, Academe Today, May 27, 2016:
Are women judged more harshly for saying no than their male colleagues?
Fast Company Leadership, May 30, 2016:
Here's what the experts (and the data) say about sending emails fast and getting useful responses faster.
The Wall Street Journal, May 30, 2016:
Research shows women aren't penalized for assertiveness expressed through nonverbal means
Fortune, May 31, 2016:
In April, Swiss pharma giant Novartis made an unexpected announcement. Christi Shaw, the company's U.S. country head and president, was stepping down "for personal and family reasons."
That phrase is often code for internal corporate strife, personnel clashes, or failure to perform. But in Shaw's case, the explanation was as personal and familial as it gets: Her older sister, Sherry, 51, was suffering from multiple myeloma, or bone marrow cancer.
AAMC CFAS News, June 3, 2016:
An opinion essay in Britain's Guardian titled, "Why Aren't There More Women in Science? The Industry Structure Is Sexist" explores possible reasons why the proportion of women as lead authors of scientific papers has declined in recent years, despite the fact there are more women in some disciplines than men. A possible explanation includes earning disparities for women in science who have children, along with a host of other factors that the author says leads to an overall sexist environment.
Knowledge @ Wharton, June 3, 2016:
Equality by Design, believes that much more can be done to address gender inequality in the workplace. Bohnet, a professor and the director of the Women and Public Policy Program at Harvard Kennedy School, joined us on the Knowledge@Wharton show on Wharton Business Radio on SiriusXM channel 111 to talk about the importance of data in addressing bias and ways to design for change.
The New York Times, June 4, 2016:
IT was going to be the biggest presentation of my life - my first appearance on the TED Conference main stage - and I had already thrown out seven drafts. Searching for a new direction, I asked colleagues and friends for suggestions. "The most important thing," the first one said, "is to be yourself." The next six people I asked gave me the same tip. ...
But for most people, "be yourself" is actually terrible advice.
Fast Company Leadership, June 5, 2016:
We often hear that authenticity is crucial for leadership but forget a big reason why: it's the best way to communicate.

The Last Word
Longreads, May 24, 2015:
Inspired by her governess, the radical feminist philosopher Mary Wollstonecraft, Margaret King cast aside her immense privilege, cross-dressed as a man to go to medical school, and inspired a new generation of women to push against the rigid conventions of their era.
