No travel, no concerts, less social contact. Do you find it much more difficult to stay positive without knowing what the future brings?

During the pandemic did every day feel like the one before? Do you feel like you made little contribution or progress during this past year? Did each workday seem to be an endurance contest without a goal?

Whenever you have a moment alone to reflect, do you dwell on getting back to normal or do you think about ways in which you may need to change your world?
​The workshop From Crisis to Crafty will help you to reflect on the past year and to bring some structure into an experience that often felt or feels chaotic. Using principles of resilience training, you will focus on the events of this past year and look at things from multiple perspectives. The goal is to take some time to reflect on what you experienced during the pandemic period and to use what you learned to help you through future challenges.

Admittedly, these can be awkward topics, but they are nonetheless topics that many current and future women leaders are eager to learn more about. In this workshop, we will first discuss results of empirical studies that show evidence for the typical differences that women leaders face. Then, through group discussions and hands-on activities, we will explore the principles of networking, negotiation, and impression management and how these can be best applied to the leadership tactics of successful women leaders.
​
-
As a woman in a leadership position, do
you worry about making a competent and assertive impression while still being respected by your employees and colleagues?

Do you feel like your male colleagues can use negotiation and networking tactics that would never work for you?
-
Are you unsure of how to present your managerial status or your accomplishments without seeming arrogant or pretentious?
-
Do you feel like you don’t have a platform to discuss the specific challenges you face as a woman in a leadership role?

Using discussions and hands-on activities, we will first set the stage for a constructive discussion regarding expatriate experiences. Based on the most recent expat research, we will explore the effects of cultural differences, but will also explore how these differences differ based on generational gaps, different types of work environments and even the area of the country in which you are working. The goal of the workshop is to make you feel at ease while working in Germany, to help you achieve a sense of belonging here, and to assist you in making decisions about your time abroad.
-
Are you an expatriate working in Germany?
Do you feel like the language and cultural differences are making it challenging for you to do your best work?
-
Are you dealing with work situations that seem to be carried out very differently than they would be in your home country?
-
Do you wish to seek a job, change jobs, or take on a leadership position in Germany?
​
-
Or is Germany merely one of the countries
you are considering and you would like more information for your decision?
-
Do you feel like you cannot find a platform
to have a constructive discussion about the experiences of expatriate employees and leaders in Germany?
