Monthly Mentoring-for-Lunch

This monthly lunch-and-learn program is based on the CIMER Entering Mentoring curriculum. Each 1-hour session begins with discussion of a case study. The rest of the session is devoted to issues/examples that attendees bring from their own experience. In this peer mentoring model, primary learning goals revolve around Entering Mentoring themes and topics:

  • Aligning Expectations
  • Articulating Your Mentoring Philosophy and Plan
  • Assessing Understanding
  • Cultivating Ethical Behavior
  • Enhancing Work-Life Integration
  • Fostering Independence
  • Fostering Wellbeing
  • Maintaining Effective Communication
  • Promoting Mentee Research Self-Efficacy
  • Promoting Professional Development
  • Reflecting on Diversity & Establishing a Practice of Inclusion

Secondary learning goals are developing listening skills and empathy.
