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 early September, 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
Academic Medicine, Post Author Corrections, June 7, 2016:
Women remain underrepresented in the production of scientific literature, and relatively little is known regarding the labor roles played by women in the production of knowledge. This study examined labor roles by gender using contributorship data from science and medical journals published by the Public Library of Science (PLOS), which require each author to indicate their contribution to one or more of the following tasks: (1) analyzed the data, (2) conceived and designed the experiments, (3) contributed reagents/materials/analysis tools, (4) performed the experiments, and (5) wrote the paper.
The New Yorker, June 10, 2016:
Science is not a major or a career. It is a commitment to a systematic way of thinking, an allegiance to a way of building knowledge and explaining the universe through testing and factual observation. The thing is, that isn't a normal way of thinking. It is unnatural and counterintuitive. It has to be learned.
Academic Medicine, Post Author Corrections, June 14, 2016:
This Commentary explores the themes introduced in a collection of articles organized by the Research Partnership on Women in Biomedical Careers and published in an upcoming issue of Academic Medicine.
More attention to culture and the working environment will be needed to achieve true parity for women in academic medical careers.
The authors share lessons learned from their own careers relevant to women's careers in academic medicine, including aspects of leadership, recruitment, editorship, promotion, and work-life balance.
Differences by race/ethnicity explain the NIH funding gap for women of color. Policies designed to address the racial/ethnic diversity of the biomedical workforce have the potential to improve funding outcomes for women of color.
Academic Medicine, Post Author Corrections, June 21, 2016:
An investigation of which mentor similarity characteristics women academic medicine faculty rate most important and whether the importance of similarity differs based on current and prior mentoring, demographic and personal factors, and career factors.
LinkedIn Pulse, June 21, 2016:
I recently read an article about coaching legend Lou Holtz, the hall of fame college football coach who led Notre Dame to a championship and many successful seasons. About a year ago he lost his home in Florida to a large fire, likely caused by a lightning strike. His material losses included photos with two popes, several US presidents, and an Olympic torch. What was striking was his attitude about all of it throughout the experience.
The Chronicle of Higher Ed, Academe Today, June 24, 2016:
Talking to reporters needn't be terrifying. Here are some links with suggests for preparing.
Inside Higher Ed, June 28, 2016:
Workplace sexism isn't always visible. In today's Academic Minute, the University of Melbourne's Victor Sojo discusses how frequent low-intensity events of sexism can be just as harsh as more flagrant events. Sojo is a postdoctoral research fellow and research manager of the Center for Ethical Leadership at the University of Melbourne. A transcript of this podcast can be found here.
Harvard Business Review, July 1, 2016:
While the popular press talks of stress as a negative to be avoided, seasoned managers know better. If you're trying to drum up new business, get a customer's order out on time, or hit your numbers for the quarter, a little stress goes a long way. It's even more important when you're trying to transform your business or revitalize a sagging culture. That's when you need enough stress to motivate action.

The Last Word
The Chronicle of Higher Education, June 30, 2016:
We live in an era of too many multimillion-dollar-a year head coaches who win games but embarrass their colleges by practicing a wide variety of unethical behaviors, including aiding and abetting sexual assault by protecting their athletes from investigation and adjudication; embracing recruiting with a "one and done" philosophy of the value of higher education; accepting athlete-graduation rates that are less than half that of the undergraduate student body; and recruiting athletes they know are unprepared for competition in the classroom.
