Further information
This workshop consists of two parts. It is recommended to take part in both workshops, but they can be booked individually if necessary.
Workshop 1: Your strength and vision in academia
In this first part of our workshop series, we focus on the individual potential and visions of early career researchers. Every early career researcher brings a great set of strengths to build upon during their work in academia – sometimes they just need to be reminded. In addition, knowing your own support system is crucial especially when working in the academic setting in which institutional support is sometimes lacking or stigmatized. Within the workshop, we thus highlight strengths and opportunities, focusing on:
– Identifiying own values, goals, and vision for the academic work
– Recognizing personal strengths, weaknesses, and resources
– Create awareness of own social support network in case of crisis
Applied methods
Within the workshop, different methods are used to keep it interactive, lightweight, and fun for the participants. The workshops contain easy-to- implement exercises which participants can use outside of the workshop for your daily life as an early career researcher (e.g. breathing exercises, visualization of personal support network).
