Impact of an Innovative Endowed Chair Program on Medical Educator Recipients
Copyright © 2022 by the Association of American Medical Colleges..
PURPOSE: Rarely do faculty members receive endowed chairs as recognition for their work as educators. In addition to the title, endowed chairholders have traditionally received discretionary income to pursue value-added work. This study assessed the impact on recipients of receiving an endowed chair for education.
METHOD: The authors conducted a qualitative thematic analysis between 2018 and 2020, interviewing University of California, San Francisco, School of Medicine chairholders who had completed at least one 5-year term. Authors double-coded all transcripts, reconciled codes, applied social cognitive career theory during analysis, and identified themes through an iterative consensus-building approach.
RESULTS: Twenty-three of 24 (96%) eligible faculty members from 16 departments participated. Themes identified were symbolism, resources, education and educator credibility, development, and impact. The chair was a symbol that brought recognition, indicated quality, and amplified visibility and status within the institution and externally. Receiving an endowed chair conferred credibility on recipients and empowered them in the educational domain. The resources allowed chairholders the flexibility to undertake activities that were of value to them, to mentees, and to the organization. Holding the chair facilitated professional development for self and others. Chair recipients reported impact that persisted long after their term(s) concluded. A model of impact emerged, suggesting that simply possessing the chair title led to visibility and gravitas, which, combined with resources, allowed the holder to leverage opportunities in education.
CONCLUSIONS: The endowed chair is an important strategy for career development in education for the chairholder and enhances the position of education institutionally. Having a plan sharpens the focus on activities, results, and impact.
