WHAT HAS BEEN HELPFUL WHEN COMMUNICATING WITH
FACULTY/ADVISER?
![Page 9: How to communicate effectively with faculty](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081507/5681657d550346895dd81260/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
COMMUNICATION SKILLS When meeting with a professor, be organized. Have
clear-cut goals so that you can make the best use of your valuable time and that of the professor's.
Personality of the individual needs to be taken into account
Destructive behaviors, such as ordering, threatening, judging or criticizing act as vehicles for communicating unacceptance rather than opening doors for further problem-solving.
assertiveness and active listening are important

CONFLICT RESOLUTION Don’t argue about who is right: explore
each other’s positions Don’t assume they meant: disentangle
intent from impact Be assertive, not passive or aggressive Frame the issue as one that enables the
two of you to collaborate

COPING SKILLS Initiate relationships with older students or
other faculty as mentors Get involved outside your department with
family and friends Self-care: sleep, eating, exercise Have guilt-free fun
