    Target Audience:  Faculty, staff, and trainees at the UConn Health Center
     
    This grand round session will provide and update on the current status of policies and practices in place governing our academic system norms and social rules, which many in place are considered informal, unstated, and ambiguous.  This session will use the genograms as a means to illustrate and help us to understand our systems in place to help trainees navigate and negotiate conflicts that may arise.
     
    Learning Objectives:  Participants will (be able to):
    1. Define how genograms can be an alternative tool to develop organizational literacy.
    2. Create a genogram illustrating an academic system to identify system patterns, significant events, system stressors and how these factors can influence the function of the system.
    3. Illustrate the use of a genogram to guide and navigate potential conflicts that arises within the academic system based on training level (i.e. medical students, interns, residents, chief residents, junior faculty, and colleagues).
     
    This presentation will be broadcast live and later archived on UConn’s MediaSite.
