The second Leadership Circle 2023 took place last week in the Seminarhaus im Grünen, set in a beautiful environment. This time, the focus was on science communication. A heartfelt thank you to all participants who, through their dedicated and substantive exchange, contributed to using the Circle as a kick-off for further activities in the Ludwig Boltzmann Gesellschaft!

Media resonance analyses initially provided important insights into the positioning and perception of the individual institutes and the Ludwig Boltzmann Gesellschaft in the media. Supported by the stimulating presentation by Eva Stanzl, an expert and renowned journalist for science communication at Wiener Zeitung, perspectives were expanded, and best practices and ideas for further professionalization were gathered through lively discussions.

We would like to thank all participants for their engagement, Eva Stanzl for her valuable insights, and Verena Krassnitzer for her professional guidance.
