Description:
This hands-on workshop offers a practical and strategic approach to networking, tailored to the needs of researchers and scientists. It also extends beyond academic settings – because fruitful conversations happen everywhere: at receptions, over coffee, and in unexpected places.
Through short exercises, individual feedback and peer interaction, you will learn how to engage with confidence, ask better questions, and communicate your ideas and interests without falling into the trap of self-promotion.
