We are delighted to have Maria Oliva-Hemker, MD, as our guest on the newest episode of the Faculty Factory podcast. Dr. Oliva-Hemker shares invaluable insights on the key factors to think about when transitioning to a new leadership role.

Dr. Oliva-Hemker currently serves as the Vice Dean for Faculty at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. She is the Stermer Family Professor of Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and Director of the Division of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition at the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center.

Simply put, without Dr. Oliva-Hemker’s support this podcast wouldn’t be possible. We sincerely thank her for that continued support of this podcast, our companion website (FacultyFactory.org), and all its resources.

Today’s episode explores the art of making a successful leadership transition within academic medicine. This is something Dr. Oliva-Hemker has firsthand experience in navigating as discussed in today’s chat. Dr. Oliva-Hemker was named Vice Dean for Faculty in 2021.

“I've had some transitions into leadership positions at different points in time, and you always learn a little bit as you go along,” she told us.

This podcast discussion offers valuable advice for faculty members at various stages of their career journey.

Regardless of whether we're transitioning from medical school, completing a postdoctoral fellowship, taking on leadership roles within professional societies, or being appointed to dean, each new position necessitates a recalibration and a fresh perspective.

“When we step into a new role, it’s so important to begin relationship building and developing collaborations with others right away,” Dr. Oliva-Hemker said.
