Faculty Factory Functional and Reverse Mentoring in Academic Medicine with Robert Tillman, PhD
This week, the “Robert Tillman, PhD Trilogy” concludes in style on the Faculty Factory Podcast. On the show, we're discussing the benefits of functional and reverse mentoring in academic medicine with Dr. Tillman.
This marks Dr. Tillman's third appearance on our podcast. You can revisit the first two episodes he recorded with us here:
- Nurturing Sources of Self-Efficacy to Accomplish More in Academic Medicine: https://facultyfactory.org/self-efficacy/
- An Intro to Strengths-Based Coaching: https://facultyfactory.org/strengths-based-coaching/
With Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Dr. Tillman serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Education, Innovation & Technology. Additionally, he holds positions as the Director of Professional Development and Mentoring in the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences and as an Assistant Dean in Faculty Affairs and Faculty Development at Baylor.
In today's interview with Dr. Tillman, we reference an article by Drs. Thorndyke, Gusic, and Milner titled "Functional mentoring: a practical approach with multilevel outcomes." You can learn more about it here: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18712800/
“Appreciation is a wonderful gift. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well,” Dr. Tillman told us in a quote so memorable we had him repeat it towards the end of this interview.
