A large part of faculty development work is establishing relationships with faculty. Yet books and workshops don't always include guidance on gaining trust, effective communication, or problem-solving strategies. My experience as faculty developer has taught me that working with faculty who come to me requires less of my knowledge and more of my personal relationship skills. In this talk, I will share how John Gottman's book, The Seven Principles of Making Marriage Work, helped me re:imagine my work and relationships with faculty at UC Irvine.
