Overview

Together, we will discuss a variety of methods to enhance productivity and achieve a healthy balance between the different aspects of life, including effective goal-setting, exploring the individual working style and environment and setting priorities. By the end of the workshop, each participant will have explored and selected concrete methods to support both their productivity and well-being. Beyond learning a collection of tools, participants will engage in personal reflection, interactive group exercises, and concrete applications of strategies suited to their personal working environments and goals.

Aims of the Workshop

Participants reflect on their own goals, their work environment and what they need to perform well. They formulate personal goals and plan their implementation. They get to know and discuss different tools and strategies for time- and self-management and choose which ones support them best.
