    Dear Members of the HCM Division,

    We're excited to announce the continuation of the HCM Mentoring Program! As a reminder (or intro, to those new to the division), the mentoring program aims to connect doctoral students and early careerists within the HCM field with scholars from across the division to discuss shared research interests and/or professional goals. 

    CALL FOR MENTEES: If you are interested in signing up as a mentee, complete the following survey by Friday, July 26th: https://forms.gle/ThCwJfvF5Leem8bn6

    CALL FOR MENTORS: For this program to succeed, we need faculty from the HCM Division to volunteer to participate as mentors and serve as a source of information, guidance, and community-building. We anticipate that mentors will be matched with 1-2 mentees. Sign up as a mentor by completing the following survey by Friday, July 26th: https://forms.gle/RTjqiKrhyfA1FpPs8

    **If you participated in the program last year, we still ask that you complete the form.

    THE DETAILS:

    • Mentees and mentors will be matched before the start of the 2024 AOM Annual Meeting. We suggest that mentors connect with mentees for at least two 30-minute sessions via video or phone over the next academic year. The first of these sessions may occur during the Annual Meeting dates, at one of the division social events, or at another time that is mutually convenient to both of your schedules. The lunch break during the Emerging Scholars Consortium on Friday (from 12:30 PM until 2:00 PM) might be a convenient slot for a first meeting.

    Around late July, an email will be sent introducing mentees to their mentors. It is our hope that this program continues to create a much-needed space for HCM members to build meaningful connections.

    Should you have any questions, please email Yuna Lee (ysl2118@cumc.columbia.edu) and Daan Westra (d.westra@maastrichtuniversity.nl).

    Thanks,

    Yuna Lee & Daan Westra
