Practice Gap Addressed
Mentorship is vital for career development, leadership growth, and professional satisfaction in critical care medicine, yet many clinicians face challenges in building effective relationships. Early- and mid-career professionals often lack guidance on finding mentors, setting goals, and navigating these dynamics, while experienced mentors struggle to support diverse career paths. These gaps can lead to missed growth opportunities, burnout, and underrepresentation in leadership. This webcast will share best practices, real-world experiences, and actionable strategies from both mentor and mentee perspectives to help close this critical gap.
