approaches that you need to navigate the complexity of academic
life, Don Haviland, Anna Ortiz, and Laura Henriques offer an
empowering framework for taking ownership of, and becoming an
active agent in shaping, your career. This book recognizes, as its
point of departure, that faculty are rarely prepared for the range
of roles they need to play or the varied institutions in which they
may work, let alone understand how to navigate institutional
context, manage the politics of academe, develop positive
professional relationships, align individual goals with
institutional expectations, or possess the time management skills
to juggle the conflicting demands on their time. The book is
infused by the authorsaEURO (TM) love for what they do, while also
recognizing the challenging nature of their work. In demonstrating
how you can manage your career, they weave in the personal and
institutional dimensions of their experience, and offer vignettes
from their longitudinal study of pre-tenure faculty to illustrate
typical issues you may have to contend with, and normalize many of
the concerns you may face as a new member of the academy. This book
offers you: The resources, tips, and strategies to develop a
strong, healthy career as a faculty member Empowerment you take
ownership of and become an active agent in shaping your career
Advice and strategies to help women and members of traditionally
underrepresented racial and ethnic groups navigate institutional
structures that affect them differently An understanding of the
changing nature of academic work, and of how to grow and succeed in
this new environment While explicitly addressed to early career
faculty, this bookaEURO (TM)s message of empowerment is of equal
utility for full-time faculty, both tenure-track and non-tenure
track, and can usefully serve as a text for graduate courses.

useful resource to offer their new colleagues.
