From Bystander to Upstander: Advocacy in Action
 

How do we move beyond the moral distress of witnessing or participating in the impact of our biases? In this session, we will explore strategies for moving from being a passive bystander to actively operating as an upstander as a way to improve learning and clinical environments.

At the completion of the lecture, participants will be able to:

  1. Recognize the importance of the "Bystander Effect" and its relevance to professional environments.
  2. Identify microaggressions when they happen in clinical and educational settings.
  3. Develop a real-time approach to becoming an active bystander ("upstander").
  4. Empower learners and colleagues to move beyond the "Bystander Effect" and into action

The Birth of a Book: How to Write a Book Proposal

This workshop will introduce participants to the practical, "nuts and bolts" involved in preparing and submitting a book proposal (prospectus) to a commercial or not-for-profit publisher. Participants will outline a book proposal; describe the book's intended audience (market); draft a PERT chart for book project management; and recognize the challenges of producing and editing a multi-author volume vs. a solo monograph. The workshop aims to remove the mystery from book authorship, production, and publication.

At the conclusion of this workshop, participants will:

  1. Recognize that a book project is synthetic scholarship that usually originates from routine professional work;
  2. Draft a book proposal (prospectus) for a multi-author (edited) volume or a single author monograph;
  3. Acknowledge book publication sequelae: rights and ownership, distribution, marketing, royalties, translation, subsequent editions, etc.
