(runs online April 6 to May 20, 2021)</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Both leadership and management skills are critical to the success of an MIT PhD/Postdoc after they leave the Institute. Although there is some overlap between these two sets
of skills, this course will focus on developing the leadership competencies that will make it possible for you to have a greater impact and success in your future work, whether in academia, industry or other area.
</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> <br>
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Each of us has to find their own way in the leadership labyrinth and develop their emotional intelligence, a critical component of leadership, which complements IQ and technical
skills. We will investigate self-awareness, self-regulation, self-confidence, empathy, motivation and influencing. On the practical side, we will discuss team building, negotiation, managing and resolving conflict, mentoring, coaching and inclusive leadership
practices. This course is specifically for doctoral candidates or postdocs in the School of Science.</span></p>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">After a several years long hiatus, MIT POWER (Postdoctoral Women Engaged in Research) is back. Our goal is to provide professional and personal development support specific to women who want to pursue advanced
careers in science and industry, and to support and advocate for women postdocs in all aspects of their professional training at MIT.<br>
We are pleased to restart our activities with a <strong>virtual kick-off event</strong> to be hosted on congregate.live on <strong>April 6th at 4 pm</strong>. If you’re interested in learning more about what POWER can do for you, and connecting with other women
postdocs at MIT, register <a href="https://forms.gle/pFx7vWFhF4J8dK5m9">here</a> (use <a href="https://forms.gle/pFx7vWFhF4J8dK5m9">https://forms.gle/pFx7vWFhF4J8dK5m9</a><br>
