As a result of the group coaching, you will be better equipped to deal with the challenging periods of your work.

What is Group Coaching?

Group coaching is a collaborative process in which a coach works with a small group of PhD students to help them to set and achieve goals, explore their challenges, and develop new skills together. Between sessions, participants apply insights and learnings, meet with their peer group and reflect on their progress.
