Participants' Comments from Career Development Program

University of Michigan 2008
• Great facilitator – positive attitude – reminded us to be grateful, that we have a great job and that if something is not being done, it’s because we’re not making it happen. We have power.
• Excellent program to give me a “time out” to look at my career and life and how to keep it on track
• Facilitated discussion and made it applicable to all of the different career levels
• Facilitating career case studies
• Asking deep questions that made me think, especially about the personal and professional both mattering but not in a clichéd way

I took your advice seriously and implemented it right away and guess what? I was able to swap a faculty member a lower level course for a senior level course. I am very pleased. Thank you so much. Your advice was and still is very appreciated. Thank you! Also, I will definitely try the mid-semester survey.
Gymama Slaughter, Assistant Professor

Anonymous participant, Women in Science and Engineering
University of Michigan, 2006

Fantastic help! I highly recommend this workshop to all women faculty.
Beverly Strassman, Associate Professor, Anthropology

Lindsay Clowes, Ph.D., Acting Director, Women and Gender Studies
University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa, 2002

Denise Jones, Senior Lecturer, Education
University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa, 2002

This workshop assisted in re-thinking own position as well as women's worth in the academy. The session was an "eye-opener" on what we are able to negotiate within the structures and policies as only a framework for negotiation not that these structures are "cast in stone" but flexibility exists.
Anita Maurtin-Cairncross, Senior Lecturer, Psychology
University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa, 2002

Thank you so much for coming to Mississippi State and providing your workshop for the women faculty within the College of Engineering. I've heard great things from all the women who participated. Your frank, open, one-on-one discussions were a needed morale and professional development boost that many of us needed. Your insights into our informal infrastructure and areas for improvement were also very helpful. We really appreciate your willingness to give a frank evaluation of where we are and where we could be. Keep fighting the good fight for women faculty everywhere.
Noel Schulz, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Electrical Engineering
Mississippi State University, 2002

Dr. Rose's presentation on the art of negotiating was extremely helpful. I'll be sure to use her practical tips and suggestions during my next opportunity for negotiations.
Lori Mann Bruce, Ph.D.,Assistant Professor, Electrical & Chemical Engineering.
Mississippi State University, 2002

Very helpful, especially for new assistant professors like me. I got a lot of information. It's a great session.
Rose Hu, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Electrical & Chemical Engineering
Mississippi State University, 2002

I was particularly happy with the atmosphere of the workshop set by Dr. Rose. It promoted good group discussions and everyone had the attitude that they were there to learn and improve, not complain.
Susan Hudson, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Mechanical Engineering
Mississippi State University, 2002

One faculty participant told me, 'My hour with Suzanna Rose was the most important hour of my professional life - and the most lucrative.'
Kathy McMahon Klosterman, Ph.D., Affirmative Action Director
Miami University-Ohio, 1999

Thank you again for your wonderful workshop....Your presentation gave credibility and validity to many of the feeling I have had for the past several years. I feel encouraged and revitalized as a result of it and I am implementing some of your excellent suggestions immediately!!
Phyllis Callahan, Ph.D., Professor of Zoology
Miami University-Ohio, 1999

This workshop was a wonderful clarification and synthesis of what had previously been vague notions about best practice for career development. Dr. Rose reminded me that balance and professional success can coexist! I found her information on goal setting and her suggestions for improving my vita particularly useful.
Victoria Manion Fleming, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Educational Psychology
Miami University-Ohio. 1999

Suzanna Rose led two outstanding workshops and on site consultation visits for our NSF-funded, 5-year Women in Science and Engineering Program. She was informative and thought-provoking. Her visits left us with new knowledge of the "system", of ourselves, and of how to enjoy and promote our careers. Through a heightened combination of external AND internal awareness, we can make progress where once we were simply confused, discouraged and exhausted.
Dorothy Hudig, Ph.D., Professor of Cellular and Molecular Immunology
School of Medicine, University of Nevada-Reno
University of Nevada Outstanding Researcher 1998

Suzanna Rose's workshops and one-on-one sessions on "Career Development" helped me greatly in putting things in my hectic life involving work and family in the right perspective. They helped me arrange my priorities with respect to what I should be doing in order to get promoted to full professor. I believe she understands thoroughly what problems are encountered by a lot of women in academia and is able to get them thinking about avenues that will enable them to succeed.
Indira Chatterjee, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering
University of Nevada, Reno. 1998

Suzanna Rose's Career Guide for Women Scholars provided a blueprint for my first job search and successful salary negotiation. Ever since, I have relied on her for developing professional advancement strategies. In addition, I always recommend her work to my female graduate students who are launching their own careers.
Carol J. Pierman, Ph.D., Chair, Department of Women's Studies
