Conflict is a normal, natural, and inevitable part of life; the workplace is no exception. And despite hearing that it's best to address issues head-on, whether big or small, for postdocs, that does not always feel possible. Let's just say it: the mentor/mentee relationship is complicated. Postdocs often feel like the stakes are too high to engage in conversations meant to address a problem.
This workshop will provide postdocs with practical, effective strategies and campus resources to address challenges that commonly arise in mentor/mentee relationships. The goal is to address the issue while fostering a positive and productive working relationship.
This workshop is a safe space for postdocs to discuss case studies and their personal experiences. Registration is limited to current UNC postdocs.
