All pre-tenure colleagues are eligible to participate in the mentorship program. Potential mentees signaling an interest in the program will be asked to complete a听form indicating:
- (a) Whether they have an existing formal or informal mentor
- (b) Their mentorship needs and goals
- (c) Their preference of working with specific mentors (up to three choices) based on the profiles
The Provost鈥檚 Office will match the prospective mentee with a member of the mentorship network, based on the mentee鈥檚 needs and prospective mentor鈥檚 availabilities and areas of interest in relation to mentorship. It is possible that one mentee will be matched with two different mentors simultaneously if that mentee鈥檚 questions or needs are best met by more than one mentor.
Particular topics on which mentors can provide guidance include:
- Excellence in teaching and graduate/HQP supervision
- Pursuing research opportunities
- Establishing strong research teams
- Navigating challenging professional relationships
- Equity-related concerns
- University governance and resources
- Work-life balance
- Career planning and career progression
- Professional challenges
- Setting and pursuing goals
- Settling in Montreal/at 成人VR视频
- Getting it all done: how to juggle, balance and prioritize
- Demystifying 成人VR视频 鈥� how the University works
- Understanding reappointment and tenure processes
When the Provost鈥檚 Office communicates a mentorship match, they will correspond with the mentors and mentees together. This communication will set out the parameters and expectations for the mentoring relationship based on expectations that are set by both the mentee鈥檚 needs and the mentor鈥檚 availabilities. This may be as short as one phone call or meeting, or as long as a sustained relationship with periodic (e.g., monthly) meetings over one year.
