Mentoring networks are critical to ensuring we have the guidance we need at the times we need it. What is the state of your mentoring network? Do you have one? Are you using it effectively?
In this workshop, we challenge the conventional wisdom about mentoring within academia and present a new framework to help you re-imagine how mentoring works. Participants will analyze their current mentoring network, identify pressing areas of mentoring needs, and create a plan to expand their access to mentors to support their career in academia. The tools you gain can also be applied to those you mentor.
This workshop is open to graduate students, postdocs, and early-career faculty.
This program also counts towards one Mentoring Mondays session for those pursuing the Postdoc Mentoring Certificate.
