Agenda
More and more grants and contracts are
interdisciplinary and require collaboration among
key, internal personnel. Others utilize external
collaborations and consortia between other
institutions, and even for-profit corporations.
This half day seminar is
designed to assist faculty and staff members who
want to evaluate the skills they bring to a team
effort or collaborative situation. In this seminar,
participants will learn how to:
Evaluate group roles and
behavior
Assess their team building
skills
Avoid behavior that is counter
productive to effective group functioning
Develop new skills to improve
their group performance
And select group members and
assign tasks in a way that capitalizes on the
skills of all of the group members
The participants’ investment
of time in this seminar will have beneficial
returns, not only in terms of their grant related
productivity, but also in their work with:
Department committees
Undergraduate and graduate
student groups
Professional organizations
Social service clubs
And community organizations
This seminar incorporates
stimulating activities and discussions to provoke
introspection, insight, and personal learning.
Materials include handouts
developed especially for the seminar as well as a
commercially produced, innovative profile.
