Mentorship in Academic Medicine is an evidence-based
guide for establishing and maintaining successful mentoring
relationships for both mentors and mentees.
Drawing upon the existing evidence-base on academic mentoring in
medicine and the health sciences, it applies a case-stimulus
learning approach to the common challenges and opportunities in
mentorship in academic medicine. Each chapter begins with cases
that take the reader into the evidence around specific issues in
mentorship and provides actionable messages and recommendations for
both correcting and preventing the problems presented in the
cases.
Accompanying the text is an interactive, online learning resource
on mentorship. This e-tool provides updated resources for mentors
and mentees, including video clips and podcasts with effective
mentors who share their mentorship tips and strategies for
effective mentorship. It also provides updated departmental and
institutional strategies for establishing, running, and evaluating
effective mentoring programs.
Mentorship in Academic Medicine provides useful strategies and
tactics for overcoming the common problems and flaws in mentoring
programs and fostering productive and successful mentoring
relationships and is a valuable guide for both mentors and
mentees.
