Manage episode 381585406 series 3447218
Gina Shannon, MAT is Director of Human Simulation Education Center, Emory University School of Medicine. In this episode Gina talks about her journery from teaching theater and dance at a college prep school to working as a communication coach and simulated/standardized patient through to her current leadership role. Gina is a strong proponent of experiential learning and as an education leader, she talks about how important it is to "cultivate a team that champions failures, that recognizes mistakes are okay" and "recognizing that our failures or mistakes can also fuel our successes". Her other words of wisdom include: "making sure that you're cultivating work environments that people feel like they can work, ask each other questions, and be able to support one another. If something happens and someone can't come in or do different parts of their work that someone else can pick it up." and "To be an educator, you also have to be a learner and become familiar with how you best learn."
