{"product_id":"9781620361726","title":"Faculty Mentoring: A Practical Manual for Mentors, Mentees, Administrators, and Faculty Developers","description":"Faculty mentoring programs greatly benefit the institutions that have instituted them, and are effective in attracting and retaining good faculty.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProspective faculty members commonly ask about mentoring at on-campus interviews, and indicate that it is a consideration when choosing a position. Mentoring programs also increase the retention rate of junior faculty, greatly reducing recruitment costs, and particularly help integrate women, minority and international faculty members into the institution, while providing all new hires with an orientation to the culture, mission and identity of the college or university. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book provides step-by-step guidelines for setting up, planning, and facilitating mentoring programs for new faculty members, whether one-on-one, or using a successful group model developed and refined over twenty-five years by the authors. While it offers detailed guidance on instituting such programs at the departmental level, it also makes the case for establishing school or institutional level programs, and delineates the considerable benefits and economies of scale these can achieve. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe authors provide guidance for mentors and mentees on developing group mentoring and individual mentor \/ protégé relationships – the corresponding chapters being available online for separate purchase; as well as detailed outlines and advice to department chairs, administrators and facilitators on how to establish and conduct institution-wide group mentoring programs, and apply or modify the material to meet their specific needs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor training and faculty development purposes, we also offer two chapters as individual e-booklets. Each respectively provides a succinct summary of the roles and expectations of the roles of Mentor and Mentee. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFaculty Mentoring \/ Mentor Guide\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFaculty Mentoring \/ Mentee Guide\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe booklets are affordably priced, and intended for individual purchase by mentors and mentees, and are only available through our Web site.","brand":"Stylus Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47049056387312,"sku":"9781620361726","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781620361726_p0.jpg?v=1763857620","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781620361726","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
