Anne Marie Kondic, PharmD, Executive Director of the Community Pharmacy Foundation (CPF) joins the show to talk about her non-traditional career pathway within pharmacy. We talk about what CPF is, how it was incepted, and her pathway to becoming the organization's second Executive Director in 2015. Anne Marie also gives advice to those who are newer graduates entering the current pharmacy climate and explains her thoughts on the importance of networking. We also discuss critical lessons she has learned working in various sectors of pharmacy including community, hospital, industry, association management, and more! Anne Marie shares what her experience was like moving to a new city with no stable job or career lined-up and how she navigated being "unemployed but employable".
Anne Marie's Call to Action: "Share your story on a national, regional, or local platform. Post a story about your patient care, pharmacist/mentor experience, or any other story!"
