17 TopicsHow do you nurture a PY adviser's growth?
I recently shared in a blog here the importance of developing a strong Professional Year (PY) adviser program—from setting clear expectations to encouraging a true sense of ownership over their work. I’d love to hear how everyone is putting these ideas into practice. What’s been your biggest success in mentoring a PY adviser? How do you handle challenges like balancing oversight with giving the freedom to learn? What advice would you give to someone just beginning to work with a new PY adviser? What's been a barrier for you in taking on a PY adviser? I would also love to hear from PY advisers too and your first-hand experience of going through the program! It would be great to swap strategies, share stories, and help each other shape the next generation of our profession. It was a learning curve for us, especially as we are a virtual office, I'd love to see more growth in PY's, so happy to help if I can.25Views2likes1CommentFalling into Advice
Question: Who has had a great experience in the last couple of years, that they would like to shar, bringing on a new adviser from another career, location, education back ground? Why? We are now talking to a diverse range of ‘future advisers’ from all types of backgrounds including the undergraduates university cohort Striver is known for. ‘Falling into Advice’ is part of the fabric of what has got the profession to where it is today.52Views2likes2CommentsAMA: I'm Darren Smith and I've just implemented a business succession plan, Ask Me Anything!
