Do you want to enhance how you communicate in your mentoring relationships? Do you wonder how your colleagues maintain productive communication with their mentees? Join fellow research mentors for a conversation on ways to maintain effective communication, led by CTL facilitators trained by the Center for the Improvement of Mentored Experiences in Research (CIMER).
Effective communication is a key element of any relationship, and a mentoring relationship is no exception. Through facilitated discussions and case studies, we will collectively identify characteristics of effective communication, discuss how to communicate with mentees from diverse backgrounds, and explore practices for maintaining productive communication in your mentoring relationships.
In this session, research mentors will explore how to:
-
Use multiple strategies to communicate effectively.
-
Engage in constructive conversations with mentees.
A 60-minute workshop for faculty and research officers mentoring graduate students and postdoc researchers in Science and Engineering and the Health Sciences.
