“…5,6 Also critical is that these collaborations have a "niche" focus within the scholarly realm. 7 In the last decade, "Think Tanks" have emerged in a variety of professional settings as a supplement to, or perhaps in some cases, a substitute for conferences. "Think Tanks" have served as a mechanism for bringing together experts, often across disciplines, to share ideas and form enduring collaborations.…”

The AACP Leadership Development Special Interest Group (LD SIG) held a one-hour Virtual Networking Session during the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP) 2020 Annual Meeting. The purpose of the session was to connect attendees with colleagues from other institutions sharing similar interests related to leadership development through an engaging “Virtual Think Tank” (VTT). The VTT included facilitated collaboration which enabled small groups to develop “Collaborative Leadership Initiative Plans” (CLIPs) based on shared leadership interest areas. A CLIP is an idea for a multi-institutional programmatic or scholarly initiative that is expected to lead to deliverables or outcomes mutually beneficial for all collaborators. Facilitators then assisted the CLIP groups with identifying specific deliverables and potential outcomes of successful implementation, as well as a plan for group follow-up. Seventy-two attendees from 55 unique institutions participated to form seven CLIP groups consisting of an average of ten individuals each. CLIP ideas generated included an initiative to align faculty tenure and promotion criteria to incentivize entrepreneurship and innovation among faculty, incorporation of a leadership project into Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences in the experiential pharmacy curriculum, and creation of a cross-institutional co-curricular program for students. An important legacy of the session was a leadership networking contact list, called the Leadership Networking Database, which will serve as an enduring leadership networking tool. This session offered an innovative solution to a canceled in-person professional meeting and replaced missed networking and collaboration opportunities resulting from cancellation of the in-person meeting.

“…3 Many faculty members aim for funded education positions, but almost all start with volunteer teaching and a network. 35,36 For "BIG C" clinicians, a network may consist of professional communities focused on a medical condition (e.g., HIV) or a clinical setting (e.g., home care). 32 Among "BIG E" educators, focus on a learner level (e.g., medical students), or an instructional format (e.g., simulation), is common.…”

Guiding Academic Clinician Educators at Research-Intensive Institutions: a Framework for Chairs, Chiefs, and Mentors

et al. 2021

Department chairs and division chiefs at research-intensive academic medical centers often find mentoring clinician educators challenging. These faculty constitute the majority of academic physicians. Supporting excellent clinician educators is key to ensuring high-quality patient care and developing tomorrow’s physicians. Little has been written for leaders on strategies to advance academic clinician educators’ career success. We present a framework to guide chairs, chiefs, and mentors seeking to address clinician educator retention and satisfaction in academic medical centers.

“…Unfortunately, educational scholarship, a key skill and practice which is at the heart of driving medical education forward (Windish et al., 2019), continues to be one competency that receives far less institutional attention and support than other competencies and has much less faculty development effort devoted to it (Franks & Payakachat, 2020). For many UME faculty, it is not feasible to devote the time and energy necessary to learn about and conduct education research, especially more traditional forms of discipline‐based education research.…”
