Monday, April 29, 2019 – Networking & Mentoring and Coaching Workshops with Rena Seltzer
Building Networks of Support for a Successful Academic Career and Mentor & Coach: Utilizing Coaching Tools to Support a Dynamic Mentoring Relationship
- Rena Seltzer, President, Leader Academic
Ann Arbor, MI
Although leadership can be conferred through titles and roles, it is incumbent upon leaders to claim their authority. Even without official titles, those who speak and act powerfully can have great influence. Awareness of patterns of speech and the use of voice are tools that can be employed to build and maintain a powerful and respected presence in interactions with colleagues, administrators, staff, and students. This interactive workshop includes findings by researchers who study issues of gender and language and provides participants the opportunity to practice speaking with greater authority.
Building Networks of Support for a Successful Academic Career
The most successful researchers benefit from a robust network of real‐world connections in a variety of arenas. Advantages include opportunities for fruitful collaboration, access to information, both social and instrumental support, and the ability to build a national and international reputation. For academics
to whom networking comes easily, this workshop will provide additional tips and strategies, and for those who are “schmooze–adverse,” the workshop will identify methods to build connections in ways that suit one’s personality and style. We will also consider the benefits of diverse networks and identify steps individuals and organizations can take to support connections across differences.
Mentor & Coach: Utilizing Coaching Tools to Support a Dynamic Mentoring Relationship
Some mentoring relationships are enriching for both members of the duo, and others seem to fall flat, despite the best of intentions. This interactive workshop will explore how coaching tools can be employed in the mentoring relationship to create a more dynamic experience.
