Our Seminar Program
- The Center for Leadership and People Management offers a scientifically grounded seminar program tailored to the needs of LMU's academic staff.
- Each semester, as part of our regular seminar program, we organize around 40 seminars for LMU’s academic staff around the topics of leadership, teamwork, and communication.
- For each target group, the program is structured into basic and advanced seminars
Our program is equally aimed at:
- Professors
- Private lecturers
- Habilitands
- Postdocs
- Doctoral students
- In our basic seminars, we provide an overview of topics related to leadership and collaboration. We recommend attending a basic seminar first before participating in other seminars.
- Our advanced seminars focus on three key areas: self competence, leadership, and teaching skills.
- Our self competence seminars cover topics such as time and stress management, creativity, positive psychology and mediation for conflict resolution.
- Seminars on leadership skills focus on the role of academics as (future) leaders and convey skills on, for example, employee, team, chair and organizational leadership with a focus on increasing excellence.
- The third subject area, teaching skills, was introduced to further professionalize leadership skills in dealing with students. This content is an extension of PROFiL, LMU's teaching qualification program.
