Abstract: Through the practice of job crafting, people shape their work experience to meet their work-related needs. Faculty members who apply job crafting to their work in a university setting can not only address specific challenges but also facilitate shifts in perspective. In this practice brief, we apply the organizing framework of job crafting and examine task, relational, and cognitive crafting strategies in a women's faculty writing group. We also provide illustrative examples from one writing group. We recommend job crafting in the context of a writing group to facilitate faculty scholarship through opportunities for peer mentoring, expectations for both flexibility and accountability, and the realization of values and purpose through work identity.
