Training Leadership in science for postdocs

Share
23 September 2024
This training helps you to discover your strengths and offers possible directions for development.

Leadership demands a lot of different roles with different skill sets. As a leader, you support and facilitate research (innovation), but you are also a people manager, a coordinator, a producer, a governor. This two-day course helps you to define your strenghts and personal development wishes by discussing a number of leadership theories and skills sets. We will share experiences and tips among participants.

This is what you will learn

You will build your own personal development plan - in which areas do you think you can improve and how can you do that? - based on your own personal wishes. With the help of a professional training actor, we use Situational Leadership as a framework to practice various situations within the context of leadership, such as: how do I delegate, what if my employee lacks skills, what is the difference between coaching and teaching, and how do I apply this? How can I offer supportive feedback, or deal with friction and conflict?

We will fine-tune the programme of the training course based on the intake forms of the participants, so as to address your individual wishes.

Are you a postdoc with an interest in leadership? Then sign up!
