Enhancing Collaboration and Aligning Expectations Within Team Supervision

This workshop invites new and experienced PGR supervisors to reflect on how they collaborate within supervisory teams.

The session aims to enhance critical reflection and provide practical tools for effective collaboration within doctoral supervisory teams. The session covers three key themes: the importance of building trust within the team, tools for aligning supervisors' expectations, and strategies for proactively managing conflicts.

Intended Learning Outcomes

• Acknowledge the importance of building trust in the supervisory team
• Become familiar with tools that can support aligning expectations within the supervisory team
• Address and manage potential disagreements in the supervisory team.

This course is open to Main, Co- and Assistant supervisors of doctoral researchers.
