Book Description

What is there in developmental relationships beyond setting and striving to achieve goals? The presence of goals in coaching and mentoring programs has gone largely unquestioned, yet evidence is growing that the standard prescription of SMART, challenging goals is not always appropriate - and even potentially dangerous - in the context of a complex and rapidly changing world. Beyond Goals advances standard goal-setting theory by bringing together cutting-edge perspectives from leaders in coaching and mentoring. From psychology to neuroscience, from chaos theory to social network theory, the contributors offer diverse and compelling insights into both the advantages and limitations of goal pursuit. The result is a more nuanced understanding of goals, with the possibility for practitioners to bring greater impact and sophistication to their client engagements. The implications of this reassessment are substantial for all those practicing as coaches and mentors, or managing coaching or mentoring initiatives in organizations.

Book Description

Women in all seasons of life can feel alone, longing for encouragement, guidance, and wisdom from someone who has been there before. They would value the wealth of knowledge and wisdom from older women's experiences, but often these women don't feel equipped to offer help. This book is a starting place, meant to be a springboard for mentoring discussions between older and younger women, setting the biblical basis for mentoring from Titus 2 before outlining 11 lessons that guide their time together. Each lesson focuses on a topic such as God's word, prayer, contentment, temptation, and church, with activities for before, during, and after the mentoring session. Younger and older women will grow together as they use these lessons to walk through life together. Published in partnership with the Gospel Coalition.

Book Description

In the geological expanse of academia, there are a few individuals who stand out not just for their scholarly contributions, but also for their profound impact on the lives they touch. Dr. (Prof) Saradambal Ramachandran Singara Subramanian, or Dr. SR Singara Subramanian as he is affectionately known, is one such individual. As a professor in the Department of Earth Sciences and the joint controller of examinations, Faculty of Science, at Annamalai University, his influence extends far beyond the realms of his professional titles. He was also the former head of the Department of Earth Sciences at Annamalai University, a testament to his leadership and expertise in his field. I first encountered Dr. SR Singara Subramanian when I embarked on my PhD journey, a journey that began later in life than most. Despite my age and unconventional path, Dr. SR Singara Subramanian saw potential in me and welcomed me into his academic family with open arms. His belief in my abilities gave me the confidence to pursue my research with vigor and determination. One of the most striking qualities of Dr. SR Singara Subramanian is his liberal approach to guidance. Unlike some mentors who impose their ideas on their scholars, Dr. SR Singara Subramanian always took the time to listen to my thoughts and ideas. He nurtured my research, encouraging me to explore new avenues and think critically about my work. His guidance was never stifling; instead, it was a gentle nudge in the right direction, allowing me to grow and develop as a scholar in my own right. But perhaps what sets Dr. SR Singara Subramanian apart is his unwavering commitment to his principles. Throughout my time working with him, I have seen firsthand his dedication to academic integrity and ethical conduct. He is a role model not just in his academic achievements, but also in his steadfast adherence to his values. This book is a tribute to Dr. SR Singara Subramanian's remarkable legacy. It is a testament to his belief in his scholars, his liberal approach to guidance, and his unwavering commitment to his principles. But more than that, it is a celebration of the profound impact he has had on the lives of those fortunate enough to work with him. I hope that this book serves as a fitting tribute to a man who has truly made a difference in the world of academia.

Book Description

This book undertakes a deep examination of mentor and disciple relationships in the development of artists. It draws upon a variety of relationships and models, including an in-person mentor, a mentor or apprentice scenario, and non-physical mentors such as historical figures, in order to investigate their history and philosophy. This volume specifically addresses the role of mentoring in the lives of contemporary aspiring artists, asking if and how mentoring can be considered a form of human nurturance. Deep historical inspections and philosophical inquiries are combined with analyses of interviews with contemporary artists ranging from 35 to 101 years old. These holistic insights present the subject of mentoring in the arts from the multiple angles of art history and relevant ideas about the benefits of nurturance and acceptance in human development. Using artists’ biographies and discussions of their work, this book sheds light on the role that mentoring has played in their development and can play in contemporary education. It will appeal to artists, art history teachers, educators, art students, and art scholars.

Book Description

Mentorship is a catalyst capable of unleashing one's potential for discovery, curiosity, and participation in STEMM and subsequently improving the training environment in which that STEMM potential is fostered. Mentoring relationships provide developmental spaces in which students' STEMM skills are honed and pathways into STEMM fields can be discovered. Because mentorship can be so influential in shaping the future STEMM workforce, its occurrence should not be left to chance or idiosyncratic implementation. There is a gap between what we know about effective mentoring and how it is practiced in higher education. The Science of Effective Mentorship in STEMM studies mentoring programs and practices at the undergraduate and graduate levels. It explores the importance of mentorship, the science of mentoring relationships, mentorship of underrepresented students in STEMM, mentorship structures and behaviors, and institutional cultures that support mentorship. This report and its complementary interactive guide present insights on effective programs and practices that can be adopted and adapted by institutions, departments, and individual faculty members.
