Leadership Skills in Academia
A Doctorate plusBIGS workshop offered by the Bonn Graduate Center
Leadership has changed- in parallel with our work environments. Flatter hierarchies, project work in a matrix structure and more rapid changes in assignments, locations and colleagues are but some of the new challenges we scientists face. Interpersonal skills become ever more critical when leading a team or a project: for motivation, conflict resolution or work delegation.
