OUR FACULTY COACHING PROGRAMS
MAKEOVER
Personalized Coaching
Learn the skills to achieve your professional goals while working less and caring for yourself.
Makeover is a perfect fit if...
- You're exhausted from trying to meet the competing demands of work and life
- You can't advance your big goals because small tasks are sucking up all your precious time
- You're desperate to find a slower, more sustainable pace after the grind of these last three years
WELL-PREPARED
Developmental Editing and Personalized Coaching
All you need to build a strong case for an upcoming high stakes P&T review.
Well-Prepared is a perfect fit if...
- You're struggling to weave the various strands of your work into a cohesive narrative
- You're unsure how to articulate why your teaching, scholarship, and service matter in the academy
- You want to make going up for P&T less taxing
FOCUS FRIDAYS
Group Coaching and Writing Community
Focus Fridays is the perfect fit if...
- You write in fits and starts but crave a more consistent practice
- You're adrift in a see of unfinished projects with no shore in sight
- You're looking for an inclusive writing community where you can find belonging
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know which coaching option is right for me?
Your choice will depend on your goal. Well-Prepared is the right fit if you need assistance preparing the documents for a review (e.g., teaching statement, research statement, narrative, etc.) as well as receiving accountability to keep you on track.
Makeover is right if you’re ready for a more in-depth change in how you work, moving toward something that is healthier and more sustainable.
And Focus Fridays is right if you need support getting your writing done.
Note: Focus Fridays can be added to either Well-Prepared or Makeover.
Can I use institutional funds for these programs?
Since our programs are centered around professional development, most of our clients are able to use start-up or other institutional funds to pay for them. Some institutions have even set up a referral process for interested faculty members as a way to support their continued growth.
Is coaching like therapy?
No. Even though some of our coaches are psychologists, they are not functioning in a therapist capacity when they are coaching. Specifically, coaches do not diagnose or treat mental health challenges. They will, however, partner with you in your journey toward achieving your work-life goals.
