WiGrow Training for Supervisors of Student Employees
- Description:
What is WiGROW?
WiGROW is an engagement initiative designed to support the learning of student-employees. Supervisors and student-employees have intentional, reflective conversations with one another, providing students an opportunity to consider connections between their on-campus employment, career goals, and college experience.
WiGROW conversations are sensitive to employment context and individual student, varying in setting and style. Some conversations occur one-to-one after stepping aside from daily operations, while others take place as the student and supervisor continuing to work on tasks. Other conversations are facilitated at dedicated times in small groups. All WiGROW interactions are neutral and non-evaluative, creating a space for students to reflect on their learning in the workplace as it relates to their college experience and goals for their career.
