DESCRIPTION:Dr. Tanja Wranik\, work and organizational psychologist FSP\, 
 business and leadership coach\, and consultant\nDescription and objectives
 \nProfessional careers are partially based on technical\, scientific\, and
  professional skills (“what you know”) and partially on social network
 s and professional networks (“who you know”). However\, many young pro
 fessionals are surprised to discover that “who you know” is often much
  more important than “what you know” in determining interesting job of
 fers and careers. This is especially true for researchers and academics\, 
 who have spent much of their young lives perfecting their technical and sc
 ientific skills and to be the best in their schools\, universities\, and P
 hD programs\, and women\, who have internalized\ncounterproductive stereot
 ypes.\n\nApproach\nThis workshop is designed to give doctoral and postdoct
 oral students the tools and techniques to develop\, maintain\, and harness
  professional networks. In particular\, we will examine general principles
  concerning network building and how cultural differences in communication
  and collaboration may influence best\npractices and expectations in socia
 l relationships in different contexts.\n\nTarget audience\nFemale PhD stud
 ents & Postdocs\n_________________________________________________________
