Course Description: The primary goal of this session is to underscore the importance of non-interpretive skills given the challenges facing radiologists today and going forward. Many radiologists currently experience job dissatisfaction and burnout in an environment dominated by the pandemic and demands for increased productivity. Because of current workforce shortages, radiologists are also being increasingly tasked with administrative duties and other non-clinical responsibilities. Radiologists are taking pause in their careers and considering different opportunities. As radiologists recalibrate their careers, non–interpretive skillsets may potentially assist with their next career step. In this didactic presentation followed by interactive panel discussion, three specific non-interpretive skills will be described to help attendees contemplating career options: additional formal education and training, negotiation, and fueling internal satisfaction.

Learning Objectives: 1) Describe the benefits that formal business education and negotiation techniques may provide radiologists to help achieve their next career step 2) Identify strategies for radiologists to help self-fuel career satisfaction
