The Strategic Human Capital Interest Group is now accepting applications for the Pre-Tenure Mentoring Program for the 2024-2025 Edition.
This year-long program aims to provide opportunities for mentoring pre-tenure faculty from senior faculty and peers doing research in the strategic human capital space. We just had a successful fifth year of the program, and we thank our incredible mentors-Matthew Bidwell, Clint Chadwick, Russ Coff, Martin Ganco, Rebecca Kehoe, Greg Reilly, Rocio Bonet, Anthony Nyberg, Alan Benson, DK Kryscynski, JR Keller, Evan Starr, Denisa Mindruta, Seth Carnahan-who provided life-changing mentorship and support to our pre-tenure faculty last year.
This year's program will kick off in December. The format for the mentoring program will be small groups consisting of 2 senior faculty mentors and 3/4 pre-tenure faculty. The groups are matched on mutual preferences, and the groups will stay intact for a year, connecting on quarterly calls via teleconferencing throughout the year. We provide sufficient structure for the quarterly calls, but also offer enough flexibility for groups to organize themselves as best serves their needs.
This year's program will have the following structure (all meetings will be over Zoom):
· Program kickoff and orientation (December)
· Four quarterly group calls – Jan, Apr, July, Sept/Oct – exact dates to be determined by groups
· Two topic calls "Mind of an Editor" and "Tenure Letter Writers" featuring journal editors and senior scholars
· Brownbag Series
Application Requirements:
To apply to participate in the program, please complete this short Google form by November 24th, 2024: https://forms.gle/Z6YCMXFVpPhqqJB77
The application is open to all pre-tenure scholars. The participants will be invited to join the Strategic Human Capital Interest Group at the SMS if they are not members already. Participants are expected to attend all mentoring program meetings.
We will review the applications and notify participants by December 1st, 2024. As we aim to maintain a good ratio of mentors to participants, the size of the program may be limited by the number of mentors. Should we need to select applicants, we will give priority to those who have not participated yet and, if needed, draw randomly among them.
Please send any questions to Federica De Stefano (federica.destefano@sbs.ox.ac.uk).
