  2. Define Mentorship in the Context of academic medicine Need for Mentoring How do you identify a mentor Objectives

  3. Defining Mentorship

  4. Definition of Mentoring • “Mentor” is a term widely used in academic medicine but for which there is no consensus on an operational definition. • Further, criteria are rarely reported for evaluating the effectiveness of mentoring. • Measuring the Effectiveness of Faculty Mentoring Relationships Ronald A. Berk, PhD, Janet Berg, MS, RN, Rosemary Mortimer, MS, MSEd, RN, Benita Walton-Moss, DNS, RN, and Theresa P. Yeo, MSN, MPH, RN Academic Medicine 80;66- 71 : 2005

  5. Definition of Mentoring “There is a false sense of consensus, because at a superficial level everyone ‘knows’ what mentoring is. But closer examination indicates wide variation in operational definitions, leading to conclusions that are limited to the use of particular procedures” Wrightsman LS. Research methodologies for assessing mentoring. Paper presented at the Conference of the American Psychological Association, Los Angeles, CA, 1981. ERIC Document Reproduction Service No. ED 209-339.

  6. What We Mean When We Say Mentorship • Each Faculty Member (Tenure, Clinical and Research Tracks) will find a PrimaryMentor • Characteristics of primary mentoring: • Takes place outside of supervisor-employee relationship, at the mutual consent of a mentor and the person being mentored • Is career-focused or focuses on professional development that may be outside a mentee’s area of work • Relationship is personal - a mentor provides both professional and personal support • Relationship is initiated by mentee, introductions facilitated by mentoring lead as needed • Relationship may cross job boundaries

  7. Mentorship Goal • “ The goal of mentorship is to move the mentee to the next career stage while maintaining professional career engagement, a sense of achievement and personal and professional balance.” Binkley

  8. Impact of Mentoring • Faculty members who are engaged in effective mentoring relationships are more likely to remain at academic medical centers • Advance in rank more rapidly • Have greater career satisfaction • Better career performance including improved teaching of residents and medical students and increased quality of patient care • More successful at obtaining extramural funding Binkley and Brod, Am J Med 2013

  9. Mentee (% vs. no mentoring ) Compensation 25% vs. 5.3% Retention 72% vs. 49% Mentor (% vs. no mentoring) Compensation 28% vs. 5% Retention 69% vs. 49% Impact of Mentoring Productivity and Retention Holincheck, J., “Case Study: WorkforceAnalytics at Sun,” Gartner, Inc., 2006

  10. Goal of FAME Mentoring Program The goal of this program is to provide accessible and meaningful engagement between a faculty member with an experienced and seasoned associate for the purposes of career development and advancement, fostered by the spirit of collegiality and underscored by personal achievement and professional balance. Ellison, EC. “FAME Mentoring Program Goal Statement,” 2014

  20. Mentoring Tip Individual Development Plans (IDP) are used widely by organizations – from the NIH to the US Coast guard- to help individuals achieve goals. It is a great tool to guide successful mentoring relationships. An IDP helps the mentor understand the mentee’s needs and the mentee identify professional goals. Ideally the mentee should send the completed IDP to their mentor prior to their meeting to make the most of the meeting time.
