AB  - The paper presents a framework for faculty development that is derived from our experience of carrying out various faculty development initiatives at different Indian institutes. The framework relies on our twin findings that the faculty having goal clarity tend to perform better and most faculty members require extrinsic motivation. The framework includes de-stressing the faculty and creating awareness of the nobleness and possibilities in the teaching profession, faculty choosing goals that are aligned with or influencing organizational goals, appropriately publicizing them, and providing resources and mentoring support to the faculty for realizing them. It also includes a method to reward and recognize well-performing faculty members.

The framework embodies various pranayama and meditation techniques to destress the faculty, and through various presentations creates awareness about the nobleness and possibilities in the teaching profession, which helps them to identify values of their goals. Self-allocation of goals is driven by a multidimensional self-assessment, which is also peer-validated, and is governed by expectancy-value theory. The goals are published appropriately to influence behavior of faculty as per the theory of reasoned actions.  The goals - which may be in teaching, research, or institution administration - are analyzed using the force field analysis theory and executed using simple tracking methods on ongoing basis. The institutional goals also require usage of institutional diffusion theories and methods. The goal realization requires institutional support in terms of resources, regular reviews, and general infrastructure such as IT infrastructure to save the faculty’s time on repetitive tasks. The ongoing evaluation of the goal realization - which includes inputs of students, faculty, and administrators - results in periodic rewards and recognition. The framework expects iterations of the cycle to bring in sustained benefits to the faculty as well as their employers.
