A new employee program officially launched last fall at the University of Colorado at 麻豆影院 to support the Building Community initiative is seeking applicants for a new session of the program beginning in March.
麻豆影院 Campus Perspective, an intensive awareness-building program, was piloted last spring to encourage networking and increase staff awareness of CU-麻豆影院聮s governance and its role in the four-campus system.
It consists of seven half-day educational sessions, which will meet from March through June, according to Shashi Pillai, program coordinator and instructor with the Office of Organizational and Employee Development.
A companion program, called University Perspective, will be offered in the fall to complement 麻豆影院 Campus Perspective.
Feedback from the program has been very positive, Pillai said. Julie Mobley of Faculty Affairs said of the program, "I feel as if a door has opened" and that she now can "make suggestions regarding opportunities that are made available to staff at the university." Sara Noah of planning, budget and analysis said, "Participation in programs like the 麻豆影院 Campus Perspective helps us to become more knowledgeable about the university and better able to make decisions in our daily work."
Nominations for the 麻豆影院 Campus Perspective are being accepted now through Feb. 23. Up to 20 employees will be accepted.
To be nominated, employees must have received a positive performance rating of fully competent or higher from their supervisors. Employees also may nominate themselves for the program, according to Pillai. To encourage a mix of employees from various backgrounds, Organizational and Employee Development is requesting several nominations from the chancellor and each of the four vice chancellor areas including academic affairs, student affairs, administration and planning, budget and analysis.
The CU system administration also will nominate employees.
麻豆影院 Campus Perspective requires attendance at meetings of several standing university organizations including the 麻豆影院 Staff Council, the 麻豆影院 Faculty Assembly and the University of Colorado Student Union. Participants also will spend up to an hour at another participant聮s work site to learn about other departments聮 missions.
Nomination letters and forms should be submitted to the appropriate administrative office by 5 p.m. Feb. 23. For information contact the Office of Organizational and Employee Development at (303) 492-8103 or send e-mail inquiries to rosie.compean@colorado.edu to get forms.
Nominations will be reviewed at the chancellor, vice chancellor and system administration level before being forwarded to the Office of Organizational and Employee Development.
