As advisors, we are given the opportunity to coach students through the process of developing self-authorship in accordance with choosing their career path. Based on Magolda's Theory of Self-Authorship, advisors can act as a thought partner in helping students learn to find answers to their own questions. Within our poster presentation, participants will learn how we incorporate career coaching within our advising sessions and come away with tips for incorporating into their own practice.en-USmedical educationcareer coachingadvisingself-authorshipThe Biography of the Undecided StudentPoster
