Brief Summary

Mentorship training programs demand a paradigm shift from theory-driven approach to hands-on practical approach. This requires prioritisation of preparation of mentors and mentees for their roles through self-awareness and targeted professional development. There is a lack of evidence form health professions education institutions of global south, regarding effectiveness of the workshops in fostering mentorship culture. A mixed method study with convergent parallel design is conducted through a collaborative mentoring workshop; "Faculty Mentoring-Building stronger by digging deeper" by Aga khan University Medical College, Karachi and University of Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. Objective of the research is to emphasise the importance of faculty mentoring program, roles and responsibilities of mentors and mentees and collecting perceptions of the participants regarding the associated role of institutions. It aims to educate faculty members to develop personal development plans for becoming effective mentors and mentees. The designed intervention is a 12 hour workshop spanned over two days of six hours each with the focus on determining perception of the Medical faculty of two institutions regarding the importance and preparedness of faculty development programs and the focus on self through personal swot translating into a personal development plan. The demographic data of participants was collected before the workshop, during the workshop, and after workshop. Comparison between quantitative findings was done through ANOVA, while the qualitative data was subjected to thematic analysis.
