Scientific Program | Wednesday 9 Mercredi | Programme Scientifique SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM | WEDNESDAY 9 MERCREDI | PROGRAMME SCIENTIFIQUE W144881 Keynote Address – Great Traits, Winning Ways: Coaching and mentoring others for success 08:00–09:15 Discours d’ouverture – Les méthodes gagnantes Great Traits : L’entraînement et le mentorat en vue de la réussite Mark Tewksbury, Calgary, AB; Debbie Muir, Calgary, AB Mainpro+ Group Learning certified credits / Crédits certifiés Mainpro+ d’apprentissage en groupe = 1 Learning Objectives: 1. discover how limiting and empowering thoughts or beliefs affect leadership performance 2. experience the power of the mind-body connection 3. identify strategies to improve coaching and mentoring capacity Description: In this inspiring and insightful presentation, Mark Tewksbury and Debbie Muir share their experiences as an Olympic gold medallist and an Olympic champion coach, leaving you with practical tools to improve your performance as a coach and mentor in your own workplace or practice. The Great Traits session begins by focusing on internal awareness, challenging participants to become more aware of what they are thinking. The first step in being a great coach is to check in with yourself and make sure your own thinking is where you want it to be. Participants will experience the mind-body connection, seeing first-hand how their thoughts drive their actions and ultimately their results. They will also discover the Thought Cycle, and learn how limiting and empowering thoughts and beliefs ultimately impact their leadership performance. How are you showing up as a coach? Are you creating positive or negative Thought Cycles for yourself? What is the impact on those you coach? The session continues by increasing your ability as a coach to help others tap into their own potential. How can you use your heightened awareness to help others become more aware of their own thinking? Your job as the coach is to find the most effective way to positively affect others to help them access their full potential. Debbie and Mark will share three critical coaching actions that will help participants identify strategies to improve their own capacity. The Great Traits, Winning Ways were born from real-life experiences. Debbie Muir has coached numerous athletes to Olympic gold medals, and has mentored many of Canada’s national team coaches. Mark Tewksbury is a three-time Olympic medallist and was the Chef de mission for the 2012 Canadian Olympic Team. Objectifs d’apprentissage : 1. découvrir comment la limitation et la valorisation des pensées ou des croyances influencent le rendement en tant que coach et mentor 2. vivre et mieux comprendre la relation entre le corps et l’esprit 3. apprendre à développer des stratégies dans le but d’améliorer leur rôle de coach et mentor et leurs techniques en coaching et mentorat Description : Cette présentation inspirante et enrichissante vous fournira des outils pratiques pour améliorer votre rendement en tant que coach et mentor dans votre milieu de travail ou votre pratique. Cette séance axée sur les Great Traits se concentre d'abord sur la sensibilisation de soi, en mettant les participants au défi de mieux prendre conscience de leurs pensées. La première étape à franchir pour devenir un excellent coach et mentor est de se centrer sur soi-même et d'assurer que ses pensées sont le reflet de ses aspirations. Les participants vivront et comprendront mieux la relation entre le corps et l'esprit, constateront de quelle façon leurs pensées dirigent leurs actions et apportent des résultats. Ils découvriront le cycle de la pensée et la façon dont la limitation et la valorisation des pensées ou des croyances influencent leur rendement en matière de leadership. Vous percevez-vous comme étant un coach et mentor? Est-ce que votre cycle de pensée est positif ou négatif? Quelles sont les répercussions sur votre rôle de mentor? La séance passera ensuite à votre capacité d'animer et d'encourager les autres à se surpasser. De quelle façon pouvez-vous aider les autres à devenir pleinement conscient de leur mode de pensée. Votre rôle consiste à trouver le moyen le plus efficace d'entraîner les autres pour qu'ils pensent de façon positive pour mieux les pousser à atteindre leur plein potentiel. Mme Debbie Muir et M. Mark Tewksbury vous feront part de trois méthodes fondamentales en coaching et en mentorat qui permettront aux participants d'adopter des stratégies qui amélioreront leurs habiletés. Les méthodes gagnantes Great Traits ont été créées à partir d'expériences vécues. Debbie Muir a entraîné un grand nombre d'athlètes qui ont obtenu une médaille d'or aux olympiques en plus d'avoir agi en tant que mentor au sein de plusieurs équipes de coachs du Canada. Mark Tewksbury est trois fois médaillé d'or aux Jeux olympiques et il a été le Chef de mission de l'équipe olympique canadienne de 2012. LEGEND / LÉGENDE Simultaneous interpretation / Interprétation simultanée FAMILY MEDICINE FORUM 2016 | FORUM EN MÉDECINE FAMILIALE 2016 1 SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM | WEDNESDAY 9 MERCREDI | PROGRAMME SCIENTIFIQUE W132924 Addressing Unprofessional Learner Behaviour: Moving from preceptor angst to collegial conversations 10:30–12:00 James Goertzen, MD, MClSc, CCFP, FCFP, Thunder Bay, ON All teachers welcome. Highlights novice concepts for clinical preceptors and educational leaders. Mainpro+ Group Learning certified credits = 1.5 Learning Objectives: 1. describe contextual nature of professionalism 2. describe critical role of preceptors in the development of professionalism by their learners 3. acquire effective strategies for addressing unprofessional learner behaviour Description: Unprofessional learner behaviour may result in preceptor angst. Although professionalism is a core competency for medical students, residents, and practising physicians, teaching professionalism is often haphazard. Professionalism is best understood as a series of behaviours within a clinical setting rather than personal traits or attributes. Preceptors have a critical role in assisting learners with their professional development. Lapses in professional behaviour by students and residents are common and to be expected as they integrate the principles of professionalism within the clinical setting. A lapse provides an opportunity to have a collegial conversation to better understand the learner’s context and rationale for the behaviour. Collegial conversations encourage learner reflection and assimilation of new professional behaviours. W136571 Competency Assessment in Residency Training: Innovative milestones-based tool for in-training 10:30–12:00 evaluation reports and progress reports Miriam Lacasse, MD, MSc, CCFP, Quebec, QC; Christian Rheault, MD, CCFP All teachers welcome. Highlights novice concepts for clinical preceptors. Mainpro+ Group Learning certified credits = 1.5 Learning Objectives: 1. define the principles of competency-based assessment 2. examine an innovative milestones-based online tool for in-training evaluation reports and progress reports 3. assess a learner and propose an educational diagnosis and remediation plan (if applicable) with the help of an online assistant Description: Competency assessment should be criterion-referenced and involve multiple objective measures concomitant with periodic progress reviews of summative nature. An innovative milestones-based tool was developed by the family medicine residency program at Université Laval for in-training evaluation and progress reports. Clinical teachers are asked to assess the level of self-direction (close supervision, distant supervision, or independent) for a list of competencies using a criterion-referenced form. The system then automatically identifies whether each competency is reached before or at the expected timing, or if there is a “developmental delay” of some competencies, based on a validated developmental milestones scale. This online tool also comes with an assistant helping clinical teachers with educational diagnosis and treatment of challenging learning situations. After a brief presentation of the principles of competency-based assessment and the online assessment tool, participants will work in teams to analyse a teaching scenario and try the online assessment tool. A group discussion will follow to discuss the educational diagnosis and treatment function of the tool. Residents and medical students are welcome, as this tool is also used for self-assessment. (Note: The presentation will be in English, but participants are invited to ask questions and work on the scenario in French or English.) W137084 CanMEDS-FM 2017: What does it mean to be a family physician? A consultation (1) 10:30–12:00 Elizabeth Shaw, MD, CCFP, FCFP, Hamilton, ON; CanMEDS-FM Review Working Group All teachers welcome. Highlights advanced concepts for educational leaders and clinical preceptors. Mainpro+ Group Learning certified credits = 1.5 Learning Objectives: 1. understand, and provide feedback on, the proposed changes to the revised 2017 CanMEDS-FM Competency Framework 2. discuss strategies for implementing the revised CanMEDS-FM Competency Framework and the potential impact on teachers, learners, and practitioners 3. understand how this updated framework may be used in one’s own context Description: The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (RCPSC) recognizes the desire for CanMEDS to be a dynamic framework that meets society’s needs and a demanding health care environment. The RCPSC launched the revised CanMEDS 2015 Competency Framework, which has been endorsed for use by medical education and practice organizations

Since its move to Calgary in 2011, Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame continues to be a truly national organization with programs, events, and traveling exhibits across our country. We are proud to include a total of 65 sports represented by our 605 inducted Honoured Members spanning nearly 150 years of Canadian sport history.

In recognition of Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame’s 60th anniversary and 2015 being proclaimed the Year of Sport by our Patron David Johnston, Governor General of 2015-16 Board of Governors Canada, a second Legends group was identified.

  • USMS Liaison & Special Assignments Reports
    USMS SPECIAL APPOINTMENTS & LIAISONS ANNUAL REPORTS AMATEUR SWIMMING UNION OF THE AMERICAS REPRESENTATIVE (ASUA) Jim Miller, MD Mel Goldstein This report is filed on behalf of Mel Goldstein and me who serve as the USAS representatives to Amateur Swimming Union of the Americas (ASUA). We both sit on the ASUA Masters Technical Committee. ASUA was late going forward with their plans for the 2nd Masters Pan American Championships. However, after receiving 5 different bids the Executive Committee of ASUA endorsed San Juan, Puerto Rico as the host and set the competition dates for August 31 through September 3. The Masters Technical Committee Meeting is to be conducted on August 30, which is the same as the warm-up day for the meet. ASUA rotates the presidency every 4 years to a different geographic location within the Americas and Caribbean nations. Thus, ASUA President Mr. Orban Mendoza’s term in office is coming to a close. His successor has yet to be officially announced, but we do know that the next president will come from Canada. Mr. Mendoza established the Masters Pan American Championships, as one of his legacies. Hopefully, this event will continue to expand and serve all athletes in our hemisphere as the participation expands along with the number of aquatic sports being offered. ASUA has a new President, Eldon Godfrey, from Canada. Mr. Mendoza's term was over and it was Canada's turn by the rotation system that ASUA uses. Mr. Mendoza's contributions to ASUA include the expansion of the competition schedule to include Open Water and Masters in the championship schedule.

    © 2001 Coaching Association of Canada, ISSN 1496-1539 MARCH 2002, Vol. 2, No. 4 Staying The Course: Candid Observations of Women Coaches On The Trials And Tribulations Of Their Profession For the tenth issue of the Journal, it was my privilege to interview six of Canada's best-known and most successful women coaches. What they all have in common, aside from success, are skill, commitment, and a love of their game and of sport in general. Their experiences in their chosen profession enabled them to provide revealing and timely insights into the reality of sport in Canada. These are not coaches who have had much of an opportunity to exchange views, so I found the many common threads somewhat surprising. Not surprising, in my experience, is their frankness or their eloquence. They have much to say, and they say it well. I hope readers learn (and enjoy) as much as I did. - Sheila Robertson Staying The Course: Candid observations of women coaches on the trials and tribulations of their profession By Sheila Robertson It is generally acknowledged that women who want a coaching career face a rough ride. Even today, with a woman's right to be in virtually every workplace generally accepted, women who are senior head and assistant coaches in Canada are comparatively few - despite several initiatives to raise their numbers and improve their environment. The most recent statistics, compiled for Sport Canada's Sport Gender Snap Shot, 1997-1998 (see www.pch.gc.ca/Sportcanada/Sc_e/snapshot.htm), paint a picture of under-representation and low salaries.
