Description
Are you feeling like there just aren’t enough hours in the day to get everything done? You’re right! And you’re not alone. Faculty life is unique in that you are largely in control of how you spend your time. Unlike other professions with a consistent Monday to Friday, 8:00am - 5:00pm schedule, faculty have the benefit of being largely in charge of how they spend their time. However, this fringe benefit is also a challenge. Having to decide how you spend your time can easily lead to accepting additional projects when your plate is full, taking too much time to complete certain tasks, and struggling to make progress on your goals, to name a few.
In this workshop you will learn evidence-based strategies for planning your semester, establishing and maintaining healthy boundaries and role clarity, and exercising conscious control over your activities. Beginning with a short presentation on sustaining meaningful habits (of mind and practice), participants will spend most of the workshop engaged in active goal setting and planning. Led by Dr. Maggie Goss, Assistant Director in the Pew FTLC and Dr. Bradford Dykes, Associate Professor of Statistics and Student Success Data Director in the CLAS Voyage, our goal is to grow this summer workshop into a continuing series offered throughout the academic year. Faculty of all ranks and disciplines are welcome.
