It’s our annual “State of the Podcast” address this week on the Faculty Factory as we preview Season 5 and the year ahead! We are privileged to welcome listeners to this milestone fifth year of the Faculty Factory Podcast. Faculty Factory producer, Casey Callanan, MBA, joins podcast host Kimberly A. Skarupski, PhD, MPH, to recap some Faculty Factory community highlights from 2022 on today’s show. We also preview some of the exciting new resources, podcast episodes, and content that is coming as part of Season 5 in 2023! Here are some resources as mentioned in today’s episode:

As a friendly reminder, the previous seasons of this podcast have included:

• Season 1: Discussions with Deans

As mentioned in today’s show, Seasons 2 and 3 of the podcast come with a companion eBook that recaps a lot of the content that were outlined in those episodes. You can check them out here:

Writing Accountability Groups (WAGs) aim to make writing automatic, mechanical and routine. WAGs started as a group “writing bootcamp” for faculty members and its core principles can be utilized by any writer to improve their craft. Please visit WagYourWork.com and WAGs on HopkinsMedicine.org to learn more.
