Vital Signs: September 2013
Studies have shown that positive mentoring relationships have been linked to higher career satisfaction and rates of promotion. In honor of Women in Medicine Month, the Committee on Women in Medicine will be hosting the program, Competition, Collaboration, and Team Leadership to increase women physician’s influence as team members and gain insight into how women physicians can achieve greater inroads into leadership positions. Featured speakers include past MMS presidents, Dr. Lynda Young and Dr. Alice Coombs, along with Dr. Najmosama Nikrui and Dr. Cynthia Sacco, immediate past chair and vice chair of the Committee on Women in Medicine.
At this event, the Committee will present the Women Physician Leadership Award to Marianne E. Felice, M.D., in celebration of her multiple outstanding leadership accomplishments.
The Committee offers lectures for women physicians three to four times per year. If you are interested in learning more about the Committee on Women in Medicine or would like to suggest a topic or speaker for a future lecture, please contact Erin Tally at (800) 322-2303, ext. 7413, or via email at etally@mms.org.
