An interdisciplinary panel of mentor-mentee pairs will share their tips and tricks for entering mentoring; participants will then move into informal conversation with these “model mentorship” pairs. The session will end by identifying on-campus resources and next steps for taking a mentorship relationship to the next level. Panelists will include Ruben Gonzalez, Professor of Chemistry; Helen Lu, Hudson Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Senior Vice Dean of Faculty Affairs and Advancement; Kristin Myers, Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering; and selected mentees accompanying these mentors.</p> <p>This session will offer pertinent guidance and models for current and future mentees and those planning to take on the role of academic mentor during their careers.

In this session, research mentors will explore ways to establish mutual expectations with their mentees, and to keep expectations aligned, especially as they naturally change over time. Through facilitated discussions and case studies, research mentors will collectively explore strategies that they can integrate into their mentorship practice to maintain positive and productive mentor-mentee relationships.</span></p></div> </div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_toggle et_pb_toggle_7 et_pb_toggle_item et_pb_toggle_close"> <h5 class="et_pb_toggle_title">Entering Mentoring: Maintaining Effective Communication</h5> <div class="et_pb_toggle_content clearfix"><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Effective communication is a key element of any relationship, and a mentoring relationship is no exception. In this session, research mentors will identify different characteristics of effective communication, and discuss how to communicate with mentees from diverse backgrounds. Through facilitated discussions and case studies, research mentors will explore practices for maintaining productive communication in mentoring relationships.</span></p></div> </div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_toggle et_pb_toggle_8 et_pb_toggle_item et_pb_toggle_close"> <h5 class="et_pb_toggle_title">Entering Mentoring: Assessing Understanding</h5> <div class="et_pb_toggle_content clearfix"><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Determining whether our mentees understand the content and processes of our disciplines is not easy, yet doing so is critical for a productive mentoring relationship. In this session, research mentors will explore ways to assess how well their mentees are understanding core research concepts and processes of their discipline. Through facilitated discussions and case studies, research mentors will collectively explore strategies to identify potential causes for when mentees struggle with understanding and how to address them accordingly. </span></p></div> </div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_toggle et_pb_toggle_9 et_pb_toggle_item et_pb_toggle_close"> <h5 class="et_pb_toggle_title">Entering Mentoring: Fostering Independence</h5> <div class="et_pb_toggle_content clearfix"><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">An important goal in any mentoring relationship is helping the mentee become independent, yet clearly articulating what an independent mentee knows and can do and defining a path to independence can be challenging. In this session, research mentors will explore what an independent graduate student or postdoctoral mentee should know and can do at different stages of their academic careers. Through facilitated discussions and a case study, research mentors will collectively surface strategies that they can integrate into their mentorship practice to build mentee confidence, establish trust, and foster their independence.</span></p></div> </div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_toggle et_pb_toggle_10 et_pb_toggle_item et_pb_toggle_close"> <h5 class="et_pb_toggle_title">Entering Mentoring: Addressing Equity and Inclusion</h5> <div class="et_pb_toggle_content clearfix"><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Research groups composed of people with diverse cultures and experiences tend to be more creative and innovative when every member of the research team feels they can share their unique perspectives. In this session, research mentors will examine how they can unlock the benefits of a culturally diverse research group using inclusive practices. Research mentors will examine the ways the policies, expectations, and behaviors in their lab can promote an inclusive culture. Through facilitated discussions and case studies, research mentors will collectively explore strategies that they can use to engage in conversations about diversity with mentees and foster a sense of belonging.</span></p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div><div class="et_pb_section et_pb_section_4 et_section_regular" > <div class="et_pb_row et_pb_row_13"> <div class="et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column_20 et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child"> <div class="et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_21 et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light"> <div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Resources</strong></h2> <p><b>Explore external resources on mentoring</b></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Watch the webinar: </span><a href="https://www.facultydiversity.org/webinars/mentorshippractices"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mentorship: Efficient and Effective Practices</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> (Landry, 2022) from the </span><a href="https://www.facultydiversity.org/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.
