Convinving and Debating – How strategies and skills can improve your chances in grant application and help you to communicate sucessfully on the workfloor
The course
Scientists are often in the situation that they need to discuss their findings or their need for extra funding or resources with other members of the scientific community or with the general public. The ability to express yourself in a concise and clear manner, using strong arguments, is therefore of utmost importance. This interactive seminar with role-playing, public speaking exercises, argumentation examples and debates, will help scientists to successfully engage in various interactions with other scientists and non-scientists. Your Q&A sessions will never be the same again. You will convince your boss to buy this fantastic Mass Spec. You will disarm other people ́s arguments against you as you can look behind their facade. And last but not least, you will win on paper (e. g. research-and grant-proposals)!
