Episode 6: A conversation with Dr. Kimberly A. Curseen, Emory University School of Medicine

Kimberly A. Curseen, MD, Associate Professor, Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine

Dr. Kim Curseen is an empowering and inspirational leader in geriatrics and palliative care. Dr. Curseen feels that people, especially women, can be steered down that path that they are asked to do things. As they want to be helpful, they may just step in to fill an organizational need without ever really stopping back and just consider, “Is this the way I really want my career to go?”  Sadly, they may wake up many years later filled with regret at their career trajectory and unable to take corrective action.

Episode 4: A conversation with Dr. Ross McKinney Jr., The Association of American Medical Colleges

Ross McKinney Jr., MD, Chief Scientific Officer The Association of American Medical Colleges

“I don’t think it’s useful to have one identity for yourself. I think it’s important to realize we all as human beings have multiple parts of us, and we’re going to try and utilize those different parts of us in different ways, at different stages in our career,” explains Dr. Ross McKinney Jr., MD, Chief Scientific Officer the Association of American Medical Colleges in this episode of our healthcare leadership podcast.  When he faced rejections and failures, his strategy was to be very practical and say “Hey, okay, I guess the thing I should do is figure out what I was good at in that, and find some way to carry it forward.”  Through his very open disclosures, Ross traces his extraordinary career and his successful leadership strategies.
