INSIDE IV – Lunchlearning ENGLISH (26F07004)

«Confidently handling challenging conversations in everyday university life»

Beschreibung

Conversations are key leadership tools in everyday university life - in exchanges with employees, colleagues, teams, and committees. At the same time, they often take place under time pressure, are characterized by uncertainty, emotional tension, and institutional complexity, and require a high level of personal presence. Clear communication, a consistent attitude, and the ability to self-regulate are crucial.

Kursinhalte

This lunch learning session for professors focuses on practical, low-threshold exchange. Together, we will reflect on and explore how conversations can be conducted in a trusting manner and made effective even in critical situations. Topics will include:

  • Listening as the key to trust
  • Dealing constructively with criticism, feedback, and tensions
  • The effect of one's own communication style on others and strengthening an authentic leadership attitude
  • Emotional self-regulation in situations of uncertainty, time pressure, and complex conversations

Participants are welcome to contribute their own examples from everyday leadership, but this is not a requirement. The exchange will be supplemented by tried-and-tested tools, guiding questions, and checklists that can be applied directly in everyday university life.
