Title:Don’t Ask Your Planning Mentor What to Do — Ask Them How to Think
ریک ویلسون، دکترای FAICP، یک یا دو چیز را در مورد چگونگی شکل دادن به یک حرفه برنامه ریزی می داند. ما از برنامه ریز مجموعه وبلاگ APA “راهنمای ایده آلیست” پرسیدیم (https://www.planning.org/idealistblog/) در مورد نکات او برای منتهی ها و مربیان به طور یکسان. ویلسون استاد بخش برنامه ریزی شهری و منطقه ای در کال پلی پومونا است. کتاب او، “راهنمای ایده آلیست: چگونه شغل برنامه ریزی خود را راه اندازی و هدایت کنید” در سال ۲۰۱۷ منتشر شد. برای کسب اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد مربیگری در APA، به آدرس زیر مراجعه کنید: https://www.planning.org/mentoring/ (برچسب‌ها ترجمه) انجمن برنامه‌ریزی آمریکا
قسمتی از متن فیلم: A lot of people ask me why mentoring is so important in planning and certainly mentoring is important for everybody but I think there’s two things different about the planning profession that makes mentoring so important the first is in planning school even though at Cal Poly Pomona where I teach we try and make
Planning grounded in practice and we get students in the community doing studios but still in planning education a student learns many many theories how to plan theories of how cities and regions work and the theories are not all reconcilable or neatly fit together so when a student enters practice they have
To figure out in practice which theories to use and when which to pay attention to and this is a incredible process of learning that happens outside school in practice and a mentor can be a great help in that process the other reason why mentoring is important is that
Planners face many ethical challenges in practice and there aren’t clear-cut right and wrong answers as much as a process required so young planners can reason through what to do in specific situations and this is another area where having a mentor is a great asset to a young planner part of my effort in
Mentoring has taught me that there are many different types of mentoring and that we shouldn’t think of it as just one thing such as a kindly experienced person offering advice and support in my reflection on mentoring I see that there’s at least four types of mentoring there’s mentoring that helps students
Launch their career and relaunch them for their second or third jobs there’s mentoring that provides professional coaching helping a planner learn how to do a task better or figure out how to solve a problem or sticky political issue a kind of mentoring that people often don’t recognize is what I
Call mentoring by doing that is when you’re being mentored by working alongside with an experienced planner on a task whether that be writing a staff report making a public presentation at a community mean or answering questions from the council and the last type of mentoring that is more broad is life coaching where
Students are planners and students are considering broader questions of their purpose in life and figuring out how that connects to a planning career first of all it’s important to cultivate mentors to seek out people who could play that role in your career I know when I started my career I didn’t really
Understand that and I didn’t seek out mentors and slowly over time some of them sought out me and I benefited so much from that experience so so seek out mentors and I would also say don’t ask him what to do ask him how to think more clearly about
The process then you will be empowered to make a decisions rather than being reliant on your mentor when it comes to being a mentor I encourage all planners to consider this either in formal or informal ways rather than telling stories or saying what I would have done
In a situation I try and give a mentee a process for thinking about it how to think clearly about the opportunity to take a new job how to think clearly about an innard office issue with a fellow employee how to think clearly about interactions with counsel and ethical considerations so
The ultimate thing the men tour can give is an empowered process for deciding for yourself I was recently teaching a class of first-year graduate students the class wasn’t about mentoring but I was just informally talking to a student who said she’d signed up she’s in Southern California she received a mentor in
Northern California this planner is making a switch from land-use planning to environmental planning and she was so enthusiastic about the support and advice she got she got help in preparing for the interview she got help in seeking how to explain her switch from land-use planning to environmental planning so if you’d like one-on-one
Mentoring I’d encourage you to sign up for the mentor match program held at the APA National Conference literally she was like that’s so great I’m not kidding
