I am excited to bring you all a session specific to training and
developing your advising staff. If you’re like me, you moved into a supervisory
position with little (or no!) training on strategies for onboarding, training,
or supervising professional staff. In our time together, we will have the
opportunity to explore both theory and practice. We’ll review supervisory
models and strategies, but also share resources and tools that we’ve picked up
along the way. There will be time for some self-reflection and individual
planning, but the session will also be interactive. We will be able to
collaborate to create partnerships and a network of other supervisors so that
we can continue to connect after the conference.
Since training and supervision truly begin during the hiring
process, we will discuss strategies that you can employ to evaluate fit and
begin the process of acculturation during the hiring process. We will review
strategies that you can employ during the hiring/onboarding process, then move
through training (developing specific plans), and supervising strategies. Of
course, there are interpersonal and institutional challenges in these processes
and we’ll dig into some of those in order to discuss solutions. Participants
will leave the session with actionable strategies, ideas for implementation
back at work, and a support network for the coming year.
I am looking forward to working with the group!
Nina
