Energy and stress management: How to perform in the storm

As they progress through their careers, young researchers experience increasing demands on their time. They often feel captive to a seemingly overwhelming flow of projects, experiments, emails, meetings that all call for their immediate attention and result in unrealistic expectations on what can be achieved in a day. Eventually, even high-performers struggle to deliver and end up depleted until, inevitably, performance will drop. This workshop will transform the way participants view self-management: instead of managing time they will start managing their energy in order to achieve and maintain high productivity in face of challenges. Using proven techniques from world-class athletes and high-performance teams, the focus of this workshop will be put on an overall approach and application of this concept to everyday academic life.

During the workshop participants will:

• understand the four sources of energy that fuel high performance,
• assess how they are currently performing on all four energy dimensions, 
• identify key areas of development & change in their energy management,
• plan new habits that can help them achieve the targeted change
• understand what can get in their way and how to address such challenges effectively.
