Speaker: Viola Kraus, Munich

Date and time: October 06, 2026 (9 am - 4 pm) and November 12 (9am - 1pm)

Venue: Online via zoom

Workshop content (joint workshop with members of other graduate programs):

The workshop is really less about dealing with major conflicts and much more about developing communication skills and approaches that help prevent the kinds of conflicts we all encounter in everyday professional life:

Have you ever wondered how to deal with a challenging conversation more constructively? How to maybe adjust your communication style so that you can work towards a better, a more satisfying outcome?

Then this online workshop is for you.

We will be discussing, reflecting and trying out techniques to better manage challenging conversation. You gain some insights into what drives conflict and also your own style. Practical communication tools will be shared and practiced to equip you for future conversations.

While we are meeting online you can expect

- Some brief pre-work to get your mind ready for what is to follow 
- Interactive and reflective parts during 1,5 online days

If you are interested and would like to participate, please register by Sept 18, 2026: trr332.neutrotrain@med.uni-muenchen.de
