SUMMARY:ENGAGE 11
DESCRIPTION:Coaching is an integral component of HELM’s leadership development approach and its bespoke interventions. In this ENGAGE\, we try and make sense of the various forms of supportive exchanges that can your assist leadership journey in higher education. At its most basic\, coaching is a discourse\, a conversation between two people. Ironically\, discourse literally means to ‘run away’ and that perhaps is the point. Coaching in the context of higher education entails discarding the usual ways of being and doing. It is about finding new perspectives\, changing the lens\, enabling new interpretations and emboldening us through different conversations that inspire and invigorate both parties. But equally important\, can eventually lead to a new experience of\, and the re-configuration of the higher education space  and the individual’s role in it.  \nIn this ENGAGE\, we examine the role of coaching\, its impact and relevance\, the difference to mentoring and advising\, and how it has achieved acclaim in accelerating change in higher education.  \nProfessor Denise Zinn\, retired DVC NMU and Programme leader of Women in Leadership at HELM\,  and certified coaches\, Dr Sharon Munyaka and Dr Paddy Pampalis\, both also psychologists\, will discuss the dangers and benefits of coaching and how these can shape higher education leadership in the future. Wednesday\, 5th  October 2022 (14:00—15:30).  \nOnce you have registered you can immediately add the event to your calendar (with all the Zoom details) or you will receive an email with the Zoom details before the engagement.

SUMMARY:ENGAGE 10
DESCRIPTION:Academic advising: A catalyst for student success\nAcademic advising\, nationally and internationally is recognised as a key high impact practice for student retention and success. Although as a profession and practice it is well established across the globe\, in the US\, UK and Netherlands\, the development of academic advising in South Africa is relatively new. This engagement will provide an overview of the development of the profession and practice of academic advising in South Africa\, by drawing on lessons learnt by seven participating institutions through the National DHET Collaborative Grant led by the University of the Free State. The speakers will share strategies that demonstrate how academic advising can catalyse student success\, enhance the effective use of student support services and improve institutional effectiveness. \nProfessor Francois Strydom\, Senior Director: Centre for Teaching and Learning and Ms Gugu Tiroyabone\, Assistant Director: Academic Advising from the University of the Free State will take you through this emerging field of study and practice on Monday\, 22 August 2022 (14:00—15:30). \nOnce you have registered you can immediately add the event to your calendar (with all the Zoom details) or you will receive an email with the Zoom details for the engagement.

SUMMARY:ENGAGE #7 - Internationalisation
DESCRIPTION:Even before the pandemic\, internationalisation of higher education had become much more than joint degrees and exchanges\, with a knowledge drift of North-South and the thrill of academic tourism. In this Engage we explore critical questions around the role that internationalisation of higher education can and must play: advancing the SDGs\, widening diversity and understanding what aspects of internationalisation have – over this period – grown\, changed or become obsolete. \nRecipient of the Noam Chomsky Lifetime Achievement Award in 2021 and Distinguished Fellow at the Center for International Higher Education\, Professor Hans de Wit will be exploring the present and future possibilities for internationalisation against the backdrop of the pandemic and geopolitical upheaval. \nThe International Education Association of South Africa (IEASA) will also share some of their advances into developing a cohesive and comprehensive policy for South Africa with a view to sustainable internationalisation. Hans de Wit’s views will be expanded by South African perspectives on the promise and perils of a rebooted internationalisation. Join us on Tuesday\, 26 April 2022 (14:00—15:30). \n\nOnce you have registered\, you will receive an email with the Zoom details for the engagement on Monday\, 25 April 2022. Please feel free to pass this invitation on to others who may be interested.

SUMMARY:ENGAGE #6 - The higher education state of mind
DESCRIPTION:For a traumatic event\, like Covid-19\, to be assessed and processed\, normally requires that it is over. But as we have been told so often\, there is no clear teleological end point. We need to understand trauma while enduring its continuing presence. And nowhere is this more evident than in the realm of mental health\, both at a student and staff level. \nProfessor Jason Bantjes and Professor Dan Stein have worked on the crucial area of student mental health due to the lingering impact of Covid-19.  The study originated via the WHO World Mental Health Surveys – International College Student (WMH-ICS) Initiative. It was funded  by the SAMRC and took the form of an online survey with over 78\,000 participants which assessed mental health needs\, risk and protective factors\, treatment seeking\, stressors\, GBV\, and other factors pertinent to service delivery. \nDr Keamogetse Morwe at the University of Venda\, based at the Institute for Gender and Youth Studies\, will speak about staff and collective mental health at universities. Join us on Tuesday\, 29 March 2022 (14:00—15:30). \n\nOnce you have registered\, you will receive an email with the Zoom details for the engagement.
