Description of the workshop
Academic research teams have their own unique culture within the professional world. Therefore, academic supervisors of all genders can benefit from leadership support in order to attain and maintain a motivated and contented team. As women supervisors are still a minority in the academic world, they are faced with some additional organizational, interpersonal and personal challenges, compared to many men. This course is tailored specifically to women scientists to facilitate sharing experiences and insights. It aims to give women specific support, advice and tools to use in their leadership roles. This workshop will help participants to become confident and comfortable in their role as a woman leader in science.
At the end of the workshop, you will:
understand what constitutes leadership and how it differs from management;
be aware of how personality & individual needs shape leadership style;
understand basic interpersonal communication skills and their importance when leading a research group.
