The mentoring relationship: It’s a two-way street

Timestamps:

00:00 Intro

01:00 As Pathologists, we have a lot of competing priorities. Why is mentoring residents and fellows consistently a high priority for you?

03:27 Often what we are trying to do as educators is not transparent to our learners, for a variety of reasons. What do you wish that all residents, fellows, and learners understood about the process of their training?

05:00 How do you address someone who started out on the right food and then started a slip a little and stopped taking ownership of their cases? How do you readdress that with the learner?

06:25 Lately, there has been a lot of discussion about deliberate practice as the pathway to developing expertise. How are you deliberately becoming a better pathologist?

08:10 If you had one magic medical education wish, what would it be and why?

08:50 Have there been some things that you have done that have helped you be more successful at having that dedicated time for education? 

10:00 Last question, what has surprised you most about your professional journey so far?
