About the Interview
About the Interview Subject
Janis Apted Yadiny, MLS (b. 12 January 1948, Toronto, Canada) came to MD Anderson in 1999 to establish the new area of Faculty Development. Since 2008 she has served as the Associate Vice President of Faculty and Academic Development. In this interview, Ms. Yadiny talks about her strategies for developing leadership training for faculty at a time when little was available to support this in academic medical centers. She talks about the philosophy of the MD Anderson approach to leadership and traces its growth and impact over the course of her career. She also reflects on her own style and history as a leader, and how this has influenced the path she has charted for faculty at the institution.
