Join this masterclass to identify the role of resilience, bravery, courage, and compassion to help you manage your research in an uncertain world. We will first explore how stressors, increased demands and high level of change can impact our drive, motivation, and outputs. We will then identify frameworks and coping strategies which can help us adapt and get things done. We will draw on research and best practice to develop our resilience and bravery and help us succeed in a human and compassionate way.

This masterclass aims to help you get prepared for the year ahead and manage transitions in your projects, career pathways or research environment. The masterclass will include an interactive session with the chance to ask questions and share observations in a small group or through a Q&A.
