University of XYZ CHAIR ACADEMY MID-YEAR REFLECTION

The last six months: evolving and improving ■ Building confidence in my leaderships and decision-making skills. ■ Initiating team-building methods I would not have considered prior to the Academy. ■ Improving upon my goal setting routine. ■ Getting ORGANIZED – yeah! ■ Providing information, while also making faculty feel “heard” and appreciated. ■ Surviving transitioning to online (and supporting my faculty the best way I could!

Mentor Meetings This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-SA-NC ■ My wonderful mentor! – I value my mentor’s experience and feedback!

Challenges and Growth Opportunities ■ Challenges - pivot to online teaching due to COVID 19! – My faculty was not familiar with online teaching. Quick training and management was a challenge. ■ Growth Opportunities – becoming a better leader and educator due to having to the impact of COVID -19. – I am more efficient with compiling and relaying information to my faculty. – I am more confident with my leadership skills because I worked hard and DID successfully pivot! We all survived the transition – Ultimately, some of the changes due to transitioning online are GOOD for the department and our students.

Academy Part One (and part two) ■ My favorite memory from the Academy Part One, was getting to know other folks from Arizona (and all over the world)! Hearing about the many different perspectives, achievements, struggles was beneficial.

Growth is an ongoing process…enjoy the ride. ■ I will continue to work on my IPDP ■ The struggles we have gone through over the past several months have changed me and given me confidence. I will appreciate these changes and build on them. ■ I will continue to implement improvements within our department – we have many ideas to implement once we can get back on campus. ■ I will collaborate with my mentor and get her valued feedback. ■ I will continue coming up with innovative ideas to bring together our faculty – especially now since we are only “virtually” together (not all on campus).

THE END!
