Consulting
Strategizing with higher education administrators to develop publishing policy and identify the supports needed to provide for faculty and graduate student publishing efforts:
Articulating institutional publishing goals based on specific criteria
Exploring structures and options for providing support to faculty for publishing
Communicating to boards and funding sources why publishing resources are needed
Establishing expectations and rewards according to an institution’s identity and goals for
publishingConsidering faculty interests and desires along with workload and support systems
Identifying who besides faculty members might participate in knowledge production (graduate students, staff, others)
Understanding the relationships among these issues and efforts at increasing diversity, equity, and inclusion in an institution.
I’ve worked with MJ twice now – once when running writers’ retreats and a second time on how to incorporate English as a New Language learners into team projects. As we did, I’m confident that you’ll find her suggestions to be practical while grounded in evidence-based principles. She listens well, thinks through issues, and recommends multiple actionable solutions. Her advice helped my university to build stronger writers’ retreats and me to train others in multiple settings about how to run better team projects when one or more members are learning English. I strongly recommend that you reach out to her!
