The saying “slow is smooth, and smooth is fast” comes to mind as a theme of today’s conversation with Johnson George, MBA, PMP, CAHIM, on the Faculty Factory Podcast.
This famous axiom underscores the importance of precision, consistency, and maintaining control as you go about your daily responsibilities and tasks. Relationships and human connection are to be key characteristics for our future leaders, as the frenetic pace of working in academic medicine can often make us feel like we're just robots plowing through to-do lists.
We’re excited to welcome back Mr. George for today’s episode. He currently serves as Assistant Dean - Administration and Faculty Affairs at UTHealth Houston’s McGovern Medical School.
Congratulations are also in order for Mr. George for being named chair-elect of the AAMC’s Group on Faculty Affairs (GFA) Steering Committee, as mentioned in today’s broadcast.
Overall, Mr. George’s takeaway for our community of faculty development and faculty affairs personnel is that the future is bright for our next generation of leadership.
Other themes explored in today’s conversation include:
Did you know? This is not his first appearance on the podcast; it’s been nearly five years, though, since we heard from him on an episode from 2019 called “Catching up with Johnson George, MBA, PMP, CAHIMS.”
Johnson brings an information technology background and thus an engineering-type mindset to his various roles in academic faculty affairs. Alongside leading with empathy, his unique background was a theme we explored in-depth on our podcast the first time Mr. George joined us.
