• Reintroduce yourself via email after you leave the AAN conference so that they have your email
• Plan it out• Reach out well in advance of
your expected time frame
• Brainstorm ideas that work well for and will benefit both programs• Neurolocalization lecture
• Resident Q and A about residency (with emphasis on Neurology)
• Be willing to communicate via phone, email, or if possible in person
• This will take a while to work out the kinks
![Page 18: 2019 SIGN Meeting - American Academy of Neurology · •Recording benefitted those who could not attend live (like me, who was in a different time zone) •Opportunity to re-watch](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042315/5f038af37e708231d4099229/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
University of Kentucky Collaboration
• Introduce• Don’t hesitate to introduce
faculty members at your school• Introduced Jodie to Neurology
professors at LUCOM

• Important to leave a legacy• When you graduate, they still
have contacts in case they want to do things in the future
• May have resources you don’t know about
• Confirm• Follow up with both
programs involved to make sure things will go according to plan

A Little About PCOM SIGN
![Page 26: 2019 SIGN Meeting - American Academy of Neurology · •Recording benefitted those who could not attend live (like me, who was in a different time zone) •Opportunity to re-watch](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042315/5f038af37e708231d4099229/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Plan Big From the Start
● Surround yourself with enthusiastic people● Crowdsource ideas from board members
○ New board member applications asking for programming ideas
○ Bimonthly meetings to discuss progress○ Informal board events to develop rapport
● Know your audience○ Ask non board members what they expect from the
organization○ Don’t be afraid to try something novel; even if it isn’t a
total success, people will be grateful you listened
![Page 27: 2019 SIGN Meeting - American Academy of Neurology · •Recording benefitted those who could not attend live (like me, who was in a different time zone) •Opportunity to re-watch](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042315/5f038af37e708231d4099229/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Communication is Key
● Send weekly - biweekly emails to board members addressing upcoming endeavors○ Always ask for feedback and delegate appropriately
● Start a GroupMe or other chat group for ease● Be transparent within the community
○ Post on social media before events○ Make spreadsheets to assess interest and offer
incentives (ie. feeding people)○ Utilize the listserv to make dues paying members (if
your chapter has them) feel appreciated
![Page 29: 2019 SIGN Meeting - American Academy of Neurology · •Recording benefitted those who could not attend live (like me, who was in a different time zone) •Opportunity to re-watch](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042315/5f038af37e708231d4099229/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Planning a Conference
● Establish goals○ Who would you like to attend?
■ Local chapters■ Other campuses of your institution
○ Where can the event be held?■ The less planning invited chapters have to do, the higher
likelihood of success; propose a venue or offer to host!
○ How do you intend to finance it?■ Alumni office if speakers will be alums■ AAN yearly financial aid
○ What is it you’d like to accomplish at the event?

Finding Other Chapter Leaders
● Have board members reach out to contacts● Use the SIGN national facebook group ● Contact your regional AAN representative for
leadership information
Note: this step and picking a date could take months, plan far in advance
![Page 32: 2019 SIGN Meeting - American Academy of Neurology · •Recording benefitted those who could not attend live (like me, who was in a different time zone) •Opportunity to re-watch](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042315/5f038af37e708231d4099229/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Expect to Run the Show
● Draft an email outlining your plan and emphasizing why it should excite other leaders○ Send this message individually to start a dialogue
● Follow up if needed ○ Pro tip: med students don’t always respond right away
and emails more than 2 days old might as well be in a black hole - wait a week and write again politely
● Don’t become frustrated if other leaders become busy or choose not to respond

Picking a Date
● Ask for M1/M2 exam schedules and when dedicated study periods are
● Generate a doodle to pick dates that work best for the most parties
● Chase down folks who are holding up the process - many aren’t doing it intentionally and will be grateful you addressed them individually
![Page 35: 2019 SIGN Meeting - American Academy of Neurology · •Recording benefitted those who could not attend live (like me, who was in a different time zone) •Opportunity to re-watch](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042315/5f038af37e708231d4099229/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Budgeting for the Event
● Expect to feed people if you’re hosting○ Offer options that appeal to people with dietary
restrictions
● Get small gifts for visiting speakers - keep in mind professionals are doing you a great favor and it never hurts to make strong contacts○ Gift cards, school apparel, customized mugs, etc.
● Consider the small details○ Parking passes, table cloths, name tags, etc.
![Page 36: 2019 SIGN Meeting - American Academy of Neurology · •Recording benefitted those who could not attend live (like me, who was in a different time zone) •Opportunity to re-watch](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042315/5f038af37e708231d4099229/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Planning Speakers
● Either plan within a theme (ie. talks about epilepsy), and/or suggest a diversity of topics to include multiple interests○ eg. having MD, DO and PhD speakers so everyone
feels represented○ Ask for other chapters to bring speakers if needed
● Email or call professionals personally, show you are familiar with their work
● Propose a clear plan○ How many speakers will there be, what time will they
be speaking etc.

Greeting/Set Up
● DELEGATE● Have members available to greet visiting students● Make sure food is ready for when the guests arrive

will have professional photographers, instagrams etc.

Aftermath
● Send thank you messages to speakers● Congratulate other chapter representatives (and
your own board members) on your collaborative success - recognize those who really stepped up to assist○ Don’t hesitate to include leaders who couldn’t make it
in the end, hopefully the event won’t be a one time occasion
