SUMMARY:Mini Medical School - Fall 2024 Series
DESCRIPTION:The Fall Series of Mini Medical School has sold out! To be notified of future offerings\, please contact Janine Smith. \nMini-Medical School is a popular and ever-growing concept being offered all over Canada and the United States for the public. It is an innovative and entertaining series of lectures on medicine and health that are ‘just like going to medical school’ (but without the long hours and hard work!). You won’t get a license to practice medicine\, but you will learn a tremendous amount and leave a more educated consumer of the health care system. \nThe University of Ottawa launched this program in 2004 and over 2200 people have now “graduated” from our Mini Medical School. \nEach series is designed to stimulate and satiate your curiosity about the human body and the many health issues we face as a society. It combines the basic sciences (anatomy\, physiology) with clinical cases in each lecture so participants can experience ‘being a doctor’. \nCome and join our expert presenters as they highlight their expertise in their informative and entertaining lectures. \nFall 2024 Series\nThursday Evenings from 18:00 – 20:00\nSeptember 12\, 2024 – October 17\, 2024\nThe Ottawa Hospital – Norman Paterson Amphitheatre\n1053 Carling Ave\, Ottawa\, ON K1Y 4E9 \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Crucial Conversations for Accountability
DESCRIPTION:Crucial Conversations for Accountability (2 day course)\nRegister Now!\nTuesdays September 17 and October 1\, 2024 | 8:30 AM to 4:00PM\n12 RCPSC Section 1 hours | 12 CFPC Mainpro+ Credits \nRegister Now! FoM members save 80% when registering for all 3 Crucial Courses\nSpeaker: Ms. Sara Munroe\nLocation: in person at the FoM\, Roger Guindon Hall \nTarget Audience\nAll faculty members from the University of Ottawa Faculty of Medicine\, clinicians\, health care administrators\, healthcare leaders\, managers and directors of healthcare teams. \nCourse Description\nMANAGING PERFORMANCE IS MORE THAN A PROCESS—IT’S ABOUT PEOPLE\nSure\, there are fancy software and tools to make performance management seamless and easy. But any manager who’s struggled to close a significant performance gap or anyone who has ever walked out of an annual review feeling like they’ve just been processed rather than prioritized knows there’s nothing easy about it.  Deflated and disenchanted people don’t improve\, and neither do results.  In reality\, performance management is about addressing your people’s behavior routinely and consistently. It’s about candidly coaching through challenges and holding people accountable for lapses in behavior. It’s about identifying goals\, fast-tracking careers\, and in the process\, improving your bottom line. These are communication skills—the difficult kind that may not come naturally\, but when learned\, mean the difference between managing people and managing process.  The good news is these accountability skills are replicable and learnable. We’re all just a few crucial skills away from learning how to manage people and performance daily and directly. \nRegistration Fees – Register Now! \n\nResidents: $400 per course or $800 for all three courses ($6\,700 savings!)\nRegistrants Affiliated with uOttawa\, Faculty of Medicine: $500 per course or $1\,000 for all three courses ($6\,500 in savings!)\nRegistrants Not Affiliated with uOttawa\, Faculty of Medicine: $2\,500 per course or $5\,000 for all three courses ($2\,500 in savings!)\n\nFees include all materials and lunch – Deadline to register is August 23\, 2024.\n\nCancellation Policy:  Deadline to cancel your registration is August 30\, 2024. A $75 administrative fee will apply.  No refund for cancellation after August 30\, 2024. \nQuestions? Please contact Christine Cool\, Lead Coordinator\, Faculty Development. \n\nOther Available Crucial Courses \nCrucial Influencer\nTuesday\, October 29\, 2024 | 8:30AM to 4:00PM\n6 RCPSC Section 1 hours | 6 CFPC Mainpro+ Credits\nTHE NEW SCIENCE OF LEADERSHIP: When facing persistent\, resistant challenges\, leaders often surrender to poor results or invest in change efforts that waste time and resources. And yet it’s possible to influence behavior with surprisingly predictable success. For the past thirty years\, we’ve studied leaders with a proven ability to influence rapid\, profound and sustainable change. And here’s what we know: human behavior is grounded in six sources of influence. Effective leaders know how to leverage and apply these sources to influence real results. Influencer goes beyond corporate perks and charismatic personalities to teach a method for changing ingrained human behavior. Leaders learn how to achieve better results by changing human habits that are extraordinarily difficult to alter—especially those that mire down teams and organizations. Drawing on the skills of the world’s best change agents and five decades of social-science research\, Influencer teaches why people do what they do and how to help them act differently. Learn More! \nGetting Things Done\nThursday\, November 28\, 2024 | 8:30AM to 4:00PM\n6 RCPSC Section 1 hours | 6 CFPC Mainpro+ Credits\nThe Getting Things Done® (GTD®) methodology was developed 30 years ago by New York Times bestselling author David Allen. The course teaches skills to manage the constant flow of requests\, tasks\, and interruptions people face at all levels of the organization. By learning how to capture\, clarify\, and organize incoming requests\, people are more likely to make strategic decisions about where to invest their time and energy\, focus on the right priorities\, and prevent critical projects from slipping. When used consistently and collectively\, GTD skills also give teams a “way of working” for improved results. The in-person experience of Getting Things Done is an engaging classroom course rich with peer discussion\, real-time practice\, and group support and coaching. Delivered in one day\, this in-person course offers the best in traditional learning and development. Learn More!
