The processes of promotion, reappointment, and tenure are consistent drivers of faculty stress, consternation, and insecurity. While faculty accomplishments accrue over years and often emerge through an organic process of growth and scholarly interest, the professional statement provides the opportunity to guide your review committee in their analysis of your dossier. Working with a writing coach can help you locate narrative themes, refine your message, and apply an overall polish to your writing. Over many years, Teaching Professor of Writing, Heather Martin has helped faculty across disciplines craft a distinctive voice and message through this high-stakes professional process. Heather will work with individual faculty to develop the process that works best for their budget and needs.
