Advising: We’re doing it more but no one seems to know how to evaluate it.

Keywords: Advising, Faculty performance, FIT

Abstract: Advising is a part of faculty evaluations in many institutions of higher education. However, it is a performance dimension that raises concerns and discussion regarding how subjectively it is measured and evaluated. Because this topic has not been widely researched and addressed by faculty in business schools, this session presents a roundtable discussion in which participants can share the advising approaches and evaluation methods at their institutions. It also offers a brief review of Feedback-Informed Treatment (FIT) as a possible solution that can be adapted to improve advising for faculty and, ultimately, students.
