As a Harvard faculty member, you’ve likely been called upon to act as a mentor to your junior colleagues, postdocs, graduate students, and/or undergraduate advisees. How have you approached these relationships? What have you found to be effective? And which aspects of mentoring have you found to be difficult, or perhaps even stressful?
If you’d like to explore the topic of mentoring more deeply—to have the opportunity to engage with faculty colleagues in facilitated conversations about how to set boundaries, listen well, provide feedback, and cultivate your mentees’ independence—we hope you will join one of our Mentoring with Purpose cohorts in Spring 2024. We currently are collecting registrations for offerings in February (on Thursday afternoons, 2/8, 2/15, and 2/22 from 2–4pm) and March/April (on Friday afternoons, 3/22, 3/29, and 4/5 from 1–3pm); full details are in the registration form below.
Read below for more information about the three-session Mentoring with Purpose curriculum, or jump to the bottom of the page to register for one of the Spring 2024 offerings.
