You are the Professor In charge of a group or team based course. These could be a sports team, performing group, or research laboratory. Your STAR student, who was carrying the group has become unreliable. Consequences: The research project is falling behind schedule and is in jeopardy of loosing their funding. This will directly impact your income. OPTIONS / DISCUSSION Daniel: I fell like we are back in ETHICS 101, this is not an easy situation. You and the student: Why do high achieving students falter? We are not there to put out the absolute best product, we are there to help students learn. It is wise not rely on one person (student) to be in a key leadership position. Build a team.

Focusing on the positive:
A Holiday Break Challenge:
Try to remember, during this break, why you got into this career in the first place.
We’re basing our podcasts on an application of Dr. Dike Drummond’s book, Stop Physician Burnout: What to Do When Working Harder Isn’t Working. Dr. Drummond was a successful family physician, working his dream job in a dream location, when he realized he could not continue. His burnout was so severe that he walked away from the practice of medicine, and now dedicates his time to helping doctors avoid burnout and find meaning and satisfaction in their profession. Unfortunately, most of the ideas and observations Dr. Drummond presents are also present in higher education. Our task will be to apply what fits to the educator’s world, and to offer some discipline-specific observations as well.
