The April 17, 2018 issue of JAMA contains an
article that offers valuable insight from the Section of Plastic Surgery
and the Department of Internal Medicine at the University of Michigan
titled, “Mentoring Millennials” (Waljee JF, Chopra V, Saint S. JAMA
2018;319:1547-1548). According to the authors, mentorship dyads may be
compromised by generational issues of as-needed vs scheduled engagement,
flat vs pyramidal infrastructure, and purpose vs process. The issues of
inertia, hierarchy, busywork, subordination, uniformity, and isolation
are discussed.
