Fortgeschrittene promovierte Wissenschaftler*innen: UFR | "lead & supervise"
Das englischsprachige Programm lead & supervise richtet sich an fortgeschrittene promovierte Wissenschaftler*innen, Gruppenleitungen sowie Junior- und Tenure-Track-Professor*innen (Established Researchers/R3).
Im Sommersemester 2026 werden zwei Workshops angeboten:
Conflicts are part of everyday academic life—within teams, projects, and leadership roles. In this workshop you will develop a solid understanding of what conflicts are and why they arise. You will learn practical strategies for handling challenging situations constructively and with confidence.
The workshop aims to strengthen your personal conflict competence, helping you approach difficult conversations with greater self-assurance, recognize complex dynamics more clearly, and manage tensions professionally in an academic environment. The workshop is designed as a preventive format—not only for “big conflicts”, but also for everyday situations such as unclear expectations, recurring misunderstandings in collaboration, or tensions around feedback, roles, and priorities. It is designed for R3 researchers (advanced postdocs, junior group leaders, junior- and tenure-track professors and others with academic leadership responsibilities) who want to further develop their leadership and communication skills.

Leadership roles in early academic careers often emerge under conditions of uncertainty: expectations from research, supervision, team collaboration and institutional structures intersect while scholars simultaneously develop their own research profile. Many postdocs, research group leaders, junior and tenure track professors take responsibility for people and projects, even though their role as leaders is still evolving.
Many of the challenges and situations in this stageare not simple problems to be solved, but ongoing tensions to be navigated — for example between research and service, visibility and self-protection, supervision and professional boundaries, or independence and dependence.
In this interactive 3.5-hour workshop, you will work with real situations from your academic context and explore how you can shape your role and influence more consciously within complex academic environments.
Using the compact logic Name it – Map it – Move it, you will identify a central polarity, map values, tipping points and early warning signs, and develop a mindful and strategic leadership move as a concrete 7-day experiment.
