Ever wonder just what sort of work your colleague does, but are afraid to ask?
The Staff Talent And Role Sharing (STARS) Program invites School of Public Health (SPH) staff to discover each other’s positions and units, cultivate new alliances, and explore career opportunities and aspirations. STARS matches participants to create pairs from diverse units, backgrounds, and classifications. Paired participants then host one another for two hours, during which time they educate their guest about their unit, the role they play in it, and their career goals. Junior-level staff have the opportunity to interact with and learn from senior-level staff, while senior-level staff can offer motivation and guidance.
STARS strengthens the SPH community by fostering an inclusive environment where staff members have direct access to one another and gain a greater understanding and appreciation of the skills and experience each brings to their units and to the campus.
The STARS Program has been a great success! See the survey results for Cycle 1, Cycle 2, Cycle 3, Cycle 4, Cycle 5 and Cycle 6. (requires Acrobat Reader)
