Description: Success on the Tenure Track : Five Keys to Faculty Job Satisfaction, Hardcover by Trower, Cathy Ann, ISBN 1421405970, ISBN-13 9781421405971, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Trower (education, Harvard U.) identifies elements of the workplace that pre-tenured faculty say are most critical to their satisfaction and success, provides quantitative data about faculty satisfaction and dissatisfaction with those factors, and highlights policies and practices at seven public research universities that are exemplary in one or more categories (tenure clarity, support for teaching and research, work-life balance, culture and climate, mentoring, networking, and relationship-building). Data from about 15,000 pre-tenured faculty at about 200 four-year universities in the US and Canada was collected by the Collaborative on Academic Careers in Higher Education (of which Trower is a member), which also interviewed 104 faculty and administrators at seven exemplary institutions, to show what makes them great places to work, especially their policies and practices, the faculty experience, what explains high levels of satisfaction and the norms of activities that ensure it, and how other institutions might use this information.
