As a junior professor, do you have a specific concern that you would like to explore in greater depth in an individual coaching session? We can organize a coaching session of two to four hours that is tailored to your current needs and offers the opportunity to tackle current challenges and clearly define goals.

Possible topics that can be dealt with in coaching are, for example:

• Strategic planning for the junior professorship: How do I successfully implement my career goals and plan my next steps?
• Research and visibility: How do I build a strong research profile and increase the visibility of my work?
• Communication and negotiation skills: How do I communicate effectively with colleagues, on committees or when supervising students?
• Team development: How do I promote cooperation and trust within my team in order to successfully achieve common goals?
• Career planning: How do I develop a long-term career strategy that takes into account both my academic and personal goals?

You can work on these or other topics with an experienced coach and develop specific strategies.

Important note: As coaching cannot cover all topics in detail, we recommend that you consider in advance which topic is currently most important to you. This will allow you to get the most out of the session. You can use the application form to formulate your concerns precisely and find the right coach for your topic.

In addition to coaching, regular GUT qualification events offer further support.
