Faculty Mentoring Plan

“Mentoring is useful and powerful in understanding and advancing

organizational culture, providing access to informal and formal

networks of communication, and offering professional

stimulation to both junior and senior faculty members…It is a

continuation of one’s development as defined by life cycle and

human development theorists in terms of life sequences or stages,

personality development, and the concept and value of care”

Purpose

To provide faculty with support, direction and intentional academic guidance through collaboration with experienced faculty members.• Facilitate productive networking and collaborative partnerships.

• Review academic activities, ensuring that they meet established performance goals

• Written feedback provided to faculty member, Division Chief and Department Chair, to be used in annual faculty reviews.

Process

Process
