Colleagues and faculty members who are outliers can be positively disruptive because they bring innovation. On the other side of the spectrum, some outliers aren’t serving your department well, due to poor behavior or performance.

A real challenge for leaders is identifying these outliers and either supporting them through guidance and course correction or finding a new career path.

In the latest Pediatric Insight conversation, pediatric leaders tackle this topic head-on, sharing their experiences.

Moderated by Robert Sawin, MD, Pediatric Surgeon, Emeritus Professor and Surgeon in Chief at Seattle Children’s Hospital and the University of Washington, topics discussed include:
  • Knowing when an outlier is a catalyst or a problem
  • Building objective measures to assess faculty performance
  • Using evaluations and feedback systems to guide course correction
  • Distinguishing between system issues and individual behavior
  • Helping team members through personal challenges

Bringing a faculty member or employee into an organization has very important implications for the future success of the organization and the recruit. Making a bad choice in hiring is extraordinarily painful for a department and for a faculty member whose career suffers as a result. Often faculty searches bring candidates who may be known to a member of the search committee and, as a result, references may be deemed unnecessary. In this conversation, members of the Child Health Advisory Council discuss the importance of obtaining references prior to completing all faculty searches.
