KEY ADMINISTRATORS/KEY SUPPORT STAFF SUBJECT: Correction - Management Fellowship Program
We are pleased to announce that UCSD has received funding for a
management fellowship for the 1998-99 year. The Management Fellowship
Program this year will be offered in the External Relations area under
the direction of the Executive Director for Development of Major Gifts.
We expect that the fellowship may begin approximately January 4, 1999
and continue for a period of approximately one year.
The objectives of the Management Fellowship Program are to provide
employees, regardless of race, religion, sex, color, ethnicity, or
national origin, who have demonstrated strong potential to become
skilled administrators, with the opportunity to obtain knowledge,
experience, and management skills to further their career development,
and to assist them in competing more effectively for management
positions.
In addition to the developmental experience provided, a key aspect of
a Fellowship is the mentor/mentee relationship which is established
between a senior administrator and each Fellow. Consistent with the
University's present affirmative action obligations, people of color and women, among others, are encouraged to apply for this fellowship
opportunity.
Working closely with the Executive Director for Development of Major
Gifts, the Management Fellow will be responsible for fund raising,
including identifying, cultivating and soliciting gifts from
individuals, corporations, and foundations. The fellowship will entail analysis of high level development issues such as strategic planning and positioning as well as donor recognition and stewardship. The fellow
will be responsible for developing and implementing with the Executive
Director an organizational and strategic development plan with a clear
definition of goals, target audiences, and strategies in-line with
institutional goals. Thus, knowledge of fund raising, communication
tools, information systems, strategic planning, and skills in written
and oral communication will be important.
Full-time career staff employees at or above the Principal Analyst or
equivalent level, or with an equivalent level of skill and experience,
and full-time career academic appointees who would like to move into administrative positions, are eligible for consideration as candidates for the Management Fellowship Program.
The following criteria will be used in evaluating the applicants:
1. Demonstration that the applicant has independently pursued
activities associated with professional development.
2. Applicant's educational background.
3. Applicant's past supervisory and management
responsibilities.
4. Applicant's prior work experience, including knowledge
and skills in related functional areas.
5. Applicant's current University position.
6. Applicant's long-term commitment to the University.
Those wishing to apply for the fellowship should submit an application
to Major Gifts in External Relations at mail code 0937, by November 30,
1998.
An application form is attached for your convenience. Questions
regarding the specific nature of this fellowship position should be
directed to Jean Gorman, Executive Director of Development for Major
Gifts, 534-9644.
Questions related to the general nature of the UC Management Fellowship
Program should be directed to Lana Brenes, Director, Staff Education
and Development, 534-4890.
The awarding of the fellowship to an individual neither explicitly nor
implicitly commits the University to place the fellow in a higher level
position. However, it is hoped that an applicant successfully
completing this fellowship will be prepared more fully to achieve
his/her career goals.
I encourage all interested staff to investigate this developmental
opportunity.
