Academia is currently a high-stress environment, with consequences for our work approach and habits. We invite doctoral students to a webinar where we discuss motivation and productivity issues and practice some strategies to work better in this pressure-cooker context.
Learn to see productivity through a well-being lens. Learn how to structure your day in a way that aids your concentration and focus, rather than constantly detracting from it. In this webinar we discuss how to create a routine during times of constant change, learning to ride the productivity wave, creating a rhythm that works for you, navigating the balancing act of families and research, and how to plan to be (realistically) productive.
Registration will open closer to the event.
