Effective and sustainable work methods
Finish on Time workshop (full day) for academic staff.
The objective is to provide lecturers, post docs and senior researchers with strategies and a toolbox for increased academic productivity and sustainable work methods to support you in finishing your academic work on time and feel good along the way.
The aim of the workshop
The aim of the workshop is to give you practical tools for working sustainably in an academic context, and to understand the mechanisms that sometimes contribute to the opposite. The toolbox takes its starting point from your and the other participants' motivation and values – to identify the goals, hopes and positive feelings that are part of the researcher role, and to act in line with these. You learn to understand your own behaviors, project manage the free role as an academic and to answer the question: Is my work moving in the right direction, at the right pace?
