Mentor Interviews
Introduction Video References
- Buckingham & Goodall, The Feedback Fallacy, Harvard Business Review, 2019.
- Sheila Heen & Douglas Stone, Finding Coaching in Criticism, Harvard Business Review, 2014.
Discussion Framework
- What concept in the Postdoc Academy module or the introduction video did I find most interesting? How about with my advisor?
- How important is it for me to refine my feedback giving or receiving process? What would I like to do to get there? How can my mentor help?
- How comfortable do I feel about doing the Rewind the Tape activity with my mentor? Are they ready/open to try it too and receive feedback? (If yes, feel free to prepare the table as explained in this video. What could you have done differently? What does your advisor think they could have done differently? How can you both move forward?).
