The Council is a trusted network for all women at an AMGA medical group member – regardless of role or where you are in your career.
Members of the Council are committed to sharing ideas, strategies, and information with colleagues facing similar challenges and to building stronger professional connections with their peers. This is achieved through various mediums including face-to-face meetings, webinars, and a dedicated listserv reserved solely for Council members. Topics members have focused on include:
- Work/life balance
- Mentoring
- Finding a sponsor
- Leadership styles
Council members must be willing to actively work together on activities which can accelerate collective learning, reduce the costs of innovation and discovery, and facilitate the transfer of new knowledge to the larger community of AMGA members.
