Leadership Starter Kit

As young scientists you often take on first leadership tasks after graduating with a PhD or already supervise students and/or non-academic staff during your doctoral phase. In order to successfully manage initial leadership situations and at the same time advance your own doctorate, solid knowledge of central leadership instruments and practical experience are helpful to fulfil the tasks and to shape your new role.The online workshop "Leadership Starter Kit" will support you in mastering these first leadership steps. You will learn and experience in which areas your own leadership skills are already developed, and you will deepen your skills and knowledge in areas in which you have little or no experience.The techniques introduced in this workshop can be used in a variety of contexts ranging from leading a team on a day-to-day basis to enhancing the team’s long-term productivity. Particular emphasis is placed upon enabling prospective leaders to become aware of key dynamics within a team and to adjust leadership strategies accordingly. Seminar contents:• Leadership practice: Reflection on previous experience - Leadership tasks / tools - Psychology of leadership • Successful leadership: Communication and conflict resolution - Creating incentives & motivation - Conducting talks - Dealing with conflictive issues• Delegation, assignment, supervision: - Setting goals - Evaluate and control by means of transparent criteria.Please note: Our training programme is designed for the interaction of the participants. Comparable to classroom seminars, we ask you to turn on your camera during online events for an exchange at eye level. [more]

Getting it Right: Scientific Presentation for Doctoral Candidates

A good presentation begins with good preparation. You will work on exercises that help you understand the best techniques in developing the right presentation by answering questions like: Who will be present? Where will I give my talk? How can I most effectively present my research material? Body language is an aspect that is covered in any presentation workshop but under these special circumstances, we will cover effectively and efficiently using an online platform to give top-notch presentations. Your voices will play a particularly critical role here. Hence, in advance you will be asked to prepare a presentation of a maximum of five slides about your current research for a non-expert scientific audience.Seminar contents:• Finding out about the situation• Body language• Understanding interests of an audience• Creating better slides• Master discussionsPlease note: Our training programme is designed for the interaction of the participants.

Good Scientific Practice – Basic principles for Doctoral Candidates

The major objective of the workshop “Good Scientific Practice” is to know and understand the basic rules and values of the responsible conduct of research in all its steps, according to local, national and international regulations and guidelines. The participants will explore the differences and grey areas between good scientific practice, questionable research practice and scientific misconduct. They will learn how misconduct can be recognized and prevented and how it should be addressed and dealt with in case it occurs, and what damage it can cause if handled improperly.In addition, they will learn to develop appropriate solutions to difficult situations in the process of science and receive advice on how to protect their own scientific work. They are encouraged to speak with their colleagues and institutions about problems and challenges.The content of the workshop follows the curriculum “Good Scientific Practice” which was commissioned by and developed in cooperation with the German Research Ombudsman, an independent board of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG). Seminar contents: • Definitions of good scientific practice and scientific misconduct• Degrees and extent of scientific misconduct• Data management• Authorship and the process of publication• Mentoring and supervision• Conflict management: how to deal with scientific misconduct • Local, national and international guidelines and regulationsPlease note: Our training programme is designed for the interaction of the participants.

Differences between real and virtual interviews will be covered. After preparatory exercises, you will practise giving examples of skills and abilities. You will be primed for specific situations when confronted with awkward questions or unexpected challenges and practise these in training sequences. In individual online live coaching sessions, you can discuss individual questions with your trainer. This may include the check of application documents (1 CV and 1 motivational letter) for a specific job ad. All documents should be handed in a week prior to the individually scheduled appointments. These appointments should take place within 2 months after the workshop. • Checking and optimising application documents (CV, cover letter, etc.)• Preparation for in person and virtual interviews• Preparatory exercises and training sequences (skills, abibilities, and challenging situations)• Individual coaching for one specific application processPlease note: Our training programme is designed for the interaction of the participants.

Professor wanted! Planning and Optimizing Your Academic Career

The postdoc years are essential for academic career development. During this period, researchers are often torn between conflicting priorities of intellectual independence, on the one hand, and meeting professional obligations towards their employers, on the other hand. Postdoctoral candidates are expected to develop an independent publication record, apply for external funding, create a distinct research profile, build a teaching portfolio, communicate their research, build a network, undertake research stays abroad, etc. In this seminar, we will address questions such as: Which of these tasks are particularly important? What are the top priorities? Which time frame is appropriate and compatible with my personal private priorities? How important is the habilitation? Seminar contents:• Peer learning as well as individual coaching sessions• Requirements for a long-term career in academia• Analysis of the individual current situation, reviewing the current academic profile• Development and specification of the next goals and planning of the next stepsPlease note: Our training programme is designed for the interaction of the participants.
