Dr. Lee’s message is clear: “don’t simply do more; produce more.”
As we enter a new year and the sixth season of the Faculty Factory Podcast, we are extra excited for this week’s episode as we welcome Jennifer Lee, MD, back to the show for her third appearance.
In this episode, Dr. Lee describes various prioritization strategies that faculty can begin to employ to resist burnout by focusing on producing more, instead of simply doing more, with the end result being increased efficiency and more effective time management.
“When I think about producing more, and not just doing more, I think about time management as actually being energy management,” she told us.
Dr. Lee currently serves as Senior Associate Dean for the Office of Women in Science and Medicine, and she is also Professor of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine (ACCM) and Pediatrics with Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
She has previously appeared on two important episodes of our program, which you can revisit below:
- A Leadership Roadmap for Faculty with Jennifer Lee, MD: https://facultyfactory.org/leadership-roadmap/
- Habits and Hacks with Jennifer Lee, MD: https://facultyfactory.org/jennifer-lee/
Dr. Lee suggests aligning tasks with personal priorities, understanding your own energy patterns, and being intentional. The conversation delves into the dopamine surge from completing tasks, but Dr. Lee warns against getting addicted to checking off items without meaningful progress.
As a friendly reminder, we love to learn from faculty members around the world! If you or someone you’d like to nominate wants to be a guest on our show, reach out to us via the Contact Us page on FacultyFactory.org or email us here: kskarupski@jhmi.edu.
