Ellen Goldman, Ed.D. ’05, M.B.A., is now playing dual roles for the George Washington University (GW) as both the associate professor of human and organizational learning at GW’s Graduate School of Education and Human Development and, more recently, as the assistant dean for faculty and curriculum development in medical education for the School of Medicine and Health Sciences (SMHS).
“In the context of our strategic efforts to invest in faculty development and curriculum enhancement, I am thrilled that Dr. Ellen Goldman, a nationally recognized leader in medical education, has joined the SMHS leadership team,” said Jeffrey S. Akman, M.D. ’81, RESD ’85, Walter A. Bloedorn Professor of Administrative Medicine, vice president for health affairs at GW, and dean of SMHS. “Ellen’s expertise will help our faculty take SMHS to the next level in accomplishing our goals of excellence not just in learning but in teaching, as well.”
Goldman, who received the 2014 Morton A. Bender Teaching Award for outstanding teaching, focuses on leadership development both in and outside the classroom. She leads master- and doctoral-level courses and supervises dissertation research, and her own research has resulted in the Richard A. Swanson Research Excellence Award, recognition in the Journal of Strategy and Management, and an award from the Academy of Management.
