Visible & influential
Dauer: 2 Tage // Sprache: englisch // Auch als Online-Workshop verfügbar
Themenfeld: Kommunikation & Präsentieren // Zielgruppe: DoktorandInnen, GruppenleiterInnen, Post-Docs
Networking across boundaries and cultures
“How to network to advance my professional prospects?” Participants practice for specific academic contexts (in particular team meetings, international conferences and office small talk) to develop strategies to come into contact with senior scientists. Throughout the workshop, participants will be guided through interactive exercises to improve their body language, their self-marketing skills (pitching) and their long-term strategic networking competences. A healthy mix of theory and practice provides them with the opportunity to learn how to approach, engage and build up a relationship with key professional figures so as to become both more visible and influential in one’s own academic field across boundaries and cultures.

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.
Running a remote session with poise
“Whose turn is it? … Do we have a connection problem? … Is anyone there?” – Running virtual meetings simply differs from having face-to-face dialogue. Besides handling technical issues, team communication is often challenging and can be met with competent moderation, solid documentation and pro-active feedback. Integrating interactive exercises, trainer input and discussion, this online workshop is designed to acquaint you with the Zoom Pro platform, enabling you to prepare, host, and revise professional virtual meetings.
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.
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.
