  1. CAFM Leadership Development TaskforceMary N. Hall, MD; Ardis Davis, MSWFamily Medicine Working Party January 20. 2018 • The Question: How do we get more people into and sustain them in leadership in academic family medicine, particularly women and under represented minorities? • The Gap: Women and URM are underrepresented in leadership • The Need: To create a culture conducive to developing and sustaining leaders of diverse backgrounds which derives from personal connections, nurturing, mentoring and career navigation • The Focus: Pipeline for chairs, program directors, research directors and clerkship / MSE directors

  2.

  3. To develop skills, we have programming

  4. Immediate Recommendations • Target Leadership Development Activities within CAFM organizations • Ensure that our respective CAFM websites/communication vehicles have the information and resources clearly accessible for our constituents to access and readily use. Resources include two CAFM tools on Leadership Pathways and Mentoring • Ensure that each CAFM organization addresses issues of diversity and inclusion and unconscious bias in their respective leadership development training activities • Track current status of women and underrepresented minority leaders within our four constituent groups • Engage state AFPs to explicitly reach out to younger people to pull into our academic family medicine leadership pipeline

  5. Engaging State AFPs • What we learned is that often the “entry” point for medical students into a career in academic family medicine is through the state academies. • We would like to work with the State academies to develop ways of identifying and nurturing promising young academicians over time as they navigate their way through medical school and residency training.   • Medical students and residents do not necessarily find an “academic home” unless they find STFM or another academic organization. There are other groups such as Community Preceptors, residents/students on our Family Medicine organization boards, and Pisacano scholars to engage in this outreach as well. DISCUSSION
