The Charting Pathways of Intellectual Leadership (CPIL) Values-enacted Workplan is a core component of the CPIL initiative and is often the easiest entry point to the initiative. The faculty or staff member must be given the agency to craft their own holistic workplan(s) with horizon goals of their choosing whether personal, professional, or combined. That faculty or staff member can then share one or more workplan(s) with their supervisor and mentors to use as a talking point to revise as needed. The supervisor and mentors then can work with the faculty or staff member to help them achieve their identified goals, by providing mentoring support, identifying additional mentors, resources, guidance documents, etc. Early career faculty, for instance, sometimes plan too much for a given time period and might need support in parsing out various steppingstones and milestones. The CPIL workplan is most useful when drafted in the fall and then revised at key points. It is often paired with a cohort-mentoring program and/or provided to new and existing faculty and staff as a career, yearly, or other planning framework. It can also be adapted for use with group projects, grant work, etc. to plan out a collective horizon goal, steppingstones and milestones based on the core values of that respective group, grant, community, institution. This framework was first described in a publication in Sonja Fritzsche, Bill Hart-Davidson and Christopher P. Long. "Charting Pathways of Intellectual Leadership. An Initiative for Transformational Institutional Change." Change. The Magazine of Higher Learning May/June 2022. 19-27. https://doi.org/10.1080/00091383.2022.2054175
