Workshop 1: Self-presentation – How to say no with confidence
Leading scientists in any field most often show CVs that are filled with dozens of pages of publications, projects and other amazing side-activities, suggesting that they accept and take full advantage of every opportunity they are offered.
However, saying yes to one thing inevitably takes away time and energy from something else. With piled up commitments, the time and energy left for core academic activities fall short. Therefore, knowing when and how to say no to colleagues, collaborators, supervisors, friends and family is absolutely essential to actively create the successful work life that you love.
This highly interactive training by Dr. Insa Flachsbarth (MOJE) will take you through a variety of experiential, relatable as well as highly effective and practical tools.
Workshop 2: Networking as key to success!
Networking is more than just collecting contacts. Within a network it is easier to carry out projects together, start cooperation’s, exchange knowledge and shape career paths.
In this workshop leaded by Dr. Angela Daalmann (Anda GmbH), you will learn how to benefit from a network. You will learn how to systematically and strategically build and expand networks, how to maintain them, and how to navigate networks to meet your special needs. You will have the opportunity to analyze your existing network and increase the power of your contacts.
Day 3: 06.10.2023 – online
