Intentional Career Building

Kelly M. Malloy, MD, MBA, Clinical Professor of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery at the University of Michigan Medical School and the AAO-HNS Women in Otolaryngology (WIO) Section Financial Officer, discusses leadership, intentional career development, and the many hats and evolutions of her career. Dr. Malloy reflects on the non-linear nature of leadership growth, the value of strategic network building, and why otolaryngologists are uniquely positioned as healthcare executives. The conversation also covers physician resilience, the strategic value of earning an MBA later in one's career, and the important influence of WIO's 15+ year history within AAO-HNS and the specialty. This episode is featured as part of celebrating WIO Day every March 8.
