Description: 
Mentoring is known to contribute to the success and academic advancement of faculty members. The Faculty of Medicine encourages our members to promote, foster and participate in formal mentoring programs.  Mentoring and being mentored can be enhanced by formalizing the relationship, setting expectations and develop strategies to ensure positive outcomes for all involved and to avoid the pitfalls that can occur in mentoring relationships.

 

   At the end of the session the participant will be able to:
- Describe the benefits of mentoring for all involved.
- Describe the key elements of a formal mentoring relationship including goal setting, networking, boundary issues.
- Discuss the pitfalls for mentors and mentees including around intellectual property, authorship, collaborations, dissolving a mentoring relationship, and what are the resources for mentors and mentees when concerns arise
