Effective team building skills are often overshadowed in our medical education, yet they can make all the difference in delivering quality care and advancing a supportive work environment.
In our latest episode of the Faculty Factory Podcast, we explore this critical topic with Wendy Bennett, MD, shedding light on how to build, manage, support, and grow teams in academic medicine.
As a primary care physician, Dr. Bennett is an Associate Professor in the Division of General Internal Medicine, with joint appointments at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and Bloomberg School of Public Health.
She is also The Johns Hopkins Community Physicians Director of Research and she serves as Co-Director of the Center for Women's Health, Sex, and Gender Research.
In this interview, she highlights the importance of emotional intelligence, accountability, and adapting to hybrid work environments in effective team building.
Dr. Bennett emphasizes the need to cultivate a supportive culture while addressing team dynamics, particularly during conflicts. She notes that celebrating achievements and acknowledging team members' contributions are integral to team growth.
