Topics discussed included communication styles, negotiation, networking, promotion and tenure, and career breaks.<\/p>\n<p>The strong initial turnout was no surprise to Susan Swindells, M.B.B.S., director of the equity office at UNMC.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mentoring was deemed the highest priority among those who responded to an online survey sent to all women faculty earlier this year,&#8221; Dr. Swindells said.<\/p>\n<p>More than 30 percent of the 500 women surveyed responded, she said.<\/p>\n<p>The goals of the mentoring group are to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Provide women faculty with the tools, connections and support system necessary to succeed in their academic career.\n<li>Help women faculty reach strategic career goals by providing an environment where they can discuss the conflicting demands of work and family.\n<li>Help women faculty prioritize the diverse demands of teaching, research and service.<\/ul>\n<p>The next session will be held Jan. 22 in the Eppley Science Hall Amphitheater and will feature brief presentations on promotion and tenure from representatives of each college, followed by a Q&amp;A. Invitations to all women faculty will be forthcoming.<\/p>\n<p>In response to requests from faculty on remote campuses who cannot attend in person, the January session also will be available via live stream <a href=\"rtsp:\/\/hog.unmc.edu:554\/broadcast\/womenmentoringlive.mp4\">here.<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>The latest version of QuickTime and Java are needed to connect. (See sidebar.)<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Peer mentoring groups add to the professional success of our faculty,&#8221; said<br \/>\nRowan Zetterman, M.D., director of faculty mentorship programs at UNMC.<\/p>\n<p>The mentoring office can help other interested groups get started and can be reached at 402-559-5108.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Next session for
