Learn to navigate receiving and giving feedback in academia effectively and confidently. Participants will learn mindset, strategies, and tactics, to transform critical feedback into opportunities for growth. In interactive sessions, postdocs will gain the tools needed to not only survive but thrive in the competitive academic landscape.

Working as postdoctoral researchers means working in a highly competitive, international, and hierarchical environment. One of the most frequently named stress factors in research is feedback: how it is delivered (or avoided), the messages it contains, and how difficult it often is both to receive and to give feedback. And yet, it is an essential part of research. Looking at concrete communication methods (based on Nonviolent Communication) as well as at psychosocial roots for our difficulties with feedback, this interactive workshop is designed to offer perspectives, tools and practice to make both giving and receiving feedback more effective and enjoyable.
