Having trouble saying no & creating boundaries?

Excellent webinar w/ @LRWeingart co-author of @thenoclub

🚺more likely to be asked to do Non-Promotable Tasks
➡️Every YES is a no to something else
➡️Be strategic when deciding

#WomenInMedicine #MedTwitter #MedEd
1/

What to take into consideration when deciding:

➡️What is the ask?
➡️Who is asking you?
➡️Can you drop something else to make room for this?
➡️Are there adequate resources to succeed?
➡️Does this align w/your goals?

2/

Why does this matter?
➡️Women do more non-promotable tasks than men
➡️Women can be penalized for declining compared to men bc it goes against societal expectations
➡️Can lead to ⬆️stress/burnout, unappreciated, withdrawn
3/

How can we be more equitable?

➡️Awareness of 🚺 getting asked to do more service tasks

✅Fix the system
➡️Don’t overburden underrepresented groups
➡️Reassign/redistribute
➡️Assign tasks strategically/equitably
➡️Recognize value of all work

Some key takeaways below
#WomenInMedicine #MedEd #MedTwitter
1/4

Gender bias patterns

➡️Prove it again
🚺 judged on accomplishments
🚹 judged on potential
🔑⬇️stretch roles

🚺don’t apply until meet 100% qualifications
🚹apply if meet 60%
🔑 Missed opportunities

🎯Keep list of accomplishments, take a leap, form group to celebrate wins
2/

Gender bias patterns cont’d

➡️Tightrope
Too nice-> not respected
Too assertive-> not liked

Words matter
Pushy-> Persuasive
Aggressive -> Assertive
Emotional -> Passionate
🔑Check your biases

Written words matter in LOR
🔑Focus on accomplishments not only personality

Covering:
⭐️Technology & setup
⭐️Strategies for connection
⭐️Types of interview questions
⭐️Tips for ending #interview

#MedTwitter #MedEd #MedStudentTwitter #ResidentTwitter

1/

Pro-tip: Practice a run thru ahead of time

Background: Find a space that works. Is it distracting?

Lighting is 🔑: Face a window or have a lamp in front of you

Sound: test quality ahead of time

Platform: be familiar w/ what is going to be used

2/

Virtual engagement strategies:

Eye contact:
🎯Elevate laptop on a box/stack of books so camera is at eye level
🎯Add sticky note behind camera as reminder to look there
🎯Minimze & move window with interviewer as close to the top of the screen as possible

What do we hope to learn about applicants during interviews?

🎯Get to know the applicant beyond what’s in the file
🎯Part of the holistic review
⭐️Communication skills
⭐️Professional interests
⭐️Goals, values, aspirations

AND give them a chance to learn about the program
