Emotions can play a critical role in how we communicate, navigate relationships, and manage conflict. In this webinar we will discuss Emotional Intelligence and emotions and how they influence our resilience as scientists.

BECOMING A RESILIENT SCIENTIST SERIES

Navigating school, the career exploration process, research environments, and the stress of national/international news can seem overwhelming and lead us to doubt ourselves just when we need confidence the most. Through workshops and group discussions in this series (discussion groups will be held in the week following the lecture, more info will be provided via email), we will work to identify attitudes and behaviors that can help us be more resilient as we navigate difficult situations in school, work and life. Each workshop will highlight emotional intelligence competencies needed for success in research and healthcare careers and will provide strategies for developing these competencies as part of your educational journey. While you may participate in any of the webinars, it is best to participate in the entire series as the material relates and concepts will be developed throughout the series. The workshops and group discussions in the series are:

Session 1 – Sept: I. An Introduction to Resilience and Wellness 

Session 2 – Oct: II. Exploring our Self-Talk: Cognitive Distortions and Imposter Fears

Session 3 – Nov: III. Emotions and Emotional Intelligence in the Workplace

Session 4 – Dec: IV. Self-Advocacy and Assertiveness for Scientists
