Feeling Drained? You're Not Alone! Managing Your Energy

The Fika Crew explores the things that boost and drain our mental and physical energy.  Energy management (personal and organizational energy, not national energy policy) seems like an appropriate topic as we head into the summer months.  Learning what generates positive energy and how to mitigate things that drain, sap, and siphon energy can enhance our satisfaction, persistence, and effectiveness. _______________________ Resources Gordon J.  The Energy Bus.  10 Rules to Fuel Your Life, Work, and Team with Positive Energy.  Hoboken, NJ: Wiley & Sons, 2007.   Schwartz T and McCarthy C.  Manage Your Energy, Not Your Time.  Harvard Business Review, October 2007.   Bruch H and Vogel B.  Strategies for creating and sustaining organizational energy.  Employment Relations 2011; 38 (2): 51-61.   Schippers MC and Hogenes R.  Energy management of people in organizations: Review and research agenda.  J Bus Pscychol 2011; 26(2): 193-203. _______________________ The Pharmacy Fika podcast is a positive and compassionate “place” (a virtual community) where pharmacy and other health professions educators gather to discuss teaching, learning, scholarship, and academic life… plus the snacks that support their best work.

Needless to say, they are ours and our guests alone, and not those of our employing institutions. Even though we don’t accept advertising and don’t have any sponsors, we seem to mention Trader Joe’s snacks and various water-based drinks a LOT.
