ÌÇÐÄTV

What’s stopping you? Why can’t you settle down to do some work? Keep finding distractions? Keeping motivated and focussed whilst working on a PhD is challenging, and even more so now we are in unprecedented times and WFH. This small group coaching session will help you identify your procrastinating behaviours, make achievable goals and identify small and quick wins.

Just because we can't hold Research Refresh in the Wolfson Research Exchange at the moment doesn’t mean we can’t still have a chat over coffee and cake!

Join us on Microsoft Teams for a virtual coffee break! We'll be chatting about the best ways to work from home, and how to stay productive and get research and writing done in the current situation - plus it's a great way for you to keep in touch with other REx regulars!

Please note we will send you the session link the day before ( it will also appear in your calendar)
