Be the change you want to see: How being authentic can improve academic culture

Date
Wednesday March 13, 2024 from 9:30 AM to 12:45 PM
Location
Filmzaal De Zwarte Doos
Building
De Zwarte Doos

The aim of the workshop is to address and challenge the competitive and individualistic academic climate that several researchers experience and to discuss new and different ways of being a scientist. To this aim, we will discuss the dominant organizational climate in academia and talk about how many (and especially young) scientists experience a lack of belonging in this culture.  Young scientists will be invited to think about the kind of scientist they want to be and ways to be their authentic self at work. Moreover, we will challenge them to develop their individual role as agents of change in academia. Senior scientists will be stimulated to discover their potential role in organizational change and learn about the potential of diversity in the group of young scientists at their university
