Content & Organization:
We spend a lot of time focusing on our weaknesses in the hope of improving our skills. But what about our strengths? In fact, by paying attention to our strengths, we can enjoy our work and achieve more. In addition, how our work aligns with our values has a direct impact on our joy and motivation for our work.

In this webinar, we will explore how we can identify and play to our strengths, and use our values as a compass.

After the 45-minute presentation there are 15 minutes for discussion and Q&A.

Speaker:
Desiree Dickerson PhD (https://desireedickerson.com/) is a clinical psychologist who specializes in academic mental health and wellbeing. A former researcher herself, Desiree is now based in Europe, working with leading academic institutions, lab groups, and academics themselves to promote a healthier approach to research.

She has also contributed to the dialogue on mental health and well-being in academia through recent pieces in Nature and Science on imposter syndrome, perfectionism, mental health in grad school and mental health strategies during the COVID pandemic.
