Academic presentations for doctoral researchers
„Is everything really getting to the point? Is everyone getting the message?“ A scientific presentation has its challenges. Arousing the interest of the audience and keeping their attention to the end of the talk depends on many factors. Voice, breathing, body language are just as relevant as rhetorical and didactic components. In the workshop, actors, who are also experienced trainers, support the exploration of techniques and the presenters individual style. The goal is to communicate clearly and unequivocally the expert research that is required in the presentation.

Developing Connections with Your Peer Network
“What a pleasant surprise to discover how much we have in common professionally and personally!”
This invigorating one-day workshop is designed to help participants of the PhD community get to know each other on a personal and professional level in a pleasant atmosphere. A trainer with a theatre background will lead motivating icebreaker activities based on respect, interest and appreciation of the research fields and methods of the others. The workshop goal is to facilitate the curiosity about and appreciation of the different disciplinary backgrounds among the peer group of PhD candidates. Activities include icebreakers, exercises for team building, and best practices for developing a short pitch and effective networking.
Academic writing to stand out
“How can I make sure my paper stands out from the others…?” Excellent research is fundamental. But so is sharing it effectively with the broader academic community! This seminar supports participants in learning how to structure their academic writing so as to stand out from the crowd by producing writing that is clear, engaging and persuasive. Through its unique one-to one session offered on the second day of the workshop, this can be achieved for academic articles but also for policy briefs, media editorials or funding applications.
"I’d like to know how to structure my talk and get my point across more creatively."
Presenters are comfortable using a standard talk structure and want to try something new. Talks rarely vary from the known to the unknown in a compelling way and they want to lead the audience forward to a memorable conclusion. The workshop introduces unique ways of positioning your topic and structuring content by exploring and presenting in a variety of story formats. Central characters, motivation, storyline, action, dramatic tension, transitions and a satisfying conclusion are aspects of the playful investigation. Presentations are developed, practiced and presented with coaching and feedback.
In Talks, Meetings and Discussions
“Sometimes things don’t go as planned and I need to keep my cool instead of panicking. How can I stay focused when dealing with surprises?”
This unique two-day improvisation workshop gives participants the tools to accept the unexpected with confidence. Practical techniques help participants to step out of their comfort zone and to develop their authority, focus their anxiety, prepare for blackouts and become more self-reliant. The training is tailored to individual participant questions and uses role-play to investigate proposed scenarios and to train coping strategies, which can be used in real-world situations.
