Introductory Workshop Professional Profiling (PhD students) Thursday February 22nd

Introductory Workshop Professional Profiling

For PhD-students


You want to build up a network, come across more effectively and learn more about your profile? The workshop Professional Profiling could just be something for you.

As a junior in a university’s organisation, it is difficult to be heard. You have the time to do a lot of research but it is also important to build up a network. Then it is not so important what you know, but how you present yourself. Presenting requires a clear view of yourself as a professional, and also skills on presenting. This workshop will help you enhance your visibility in the big organisation that the university is, and in the wider scientific community.


During the workshop you will learn how to use your position as a junior in the organisation and get across effectively. There are some pitfalls, especially for women, you will have to avoid. That is why we will provide you with some theory. The concept of talentbranding, for example, can be very effective here. Of course we are also doing some practical work, individually, in situations you encounter regularly.

You will exchange experiences with fellow women in your position and improve your  confidence and self-esteem.


This workshop will take place at the 22nd of February from 13:00 till 17:00 hrs. in building the Drienerburght.

Ariëlle Brouwer (Brouwer Theater en Training Amsterdam) en Linda van der Wal (Linda TrainingenAdvies.com Utrecht) will be your trainers.
