Lost momentum? Having difficulty managing your research in an efficient way? Need motivation and strategies to complete your thesis?

This workshop will offer information to graduate students on how to:

• Efficiently structure the thesis or dissertation process for timely completion,
• Manage the emotional roller coaster, and
• Find support when your motivation ebbs.

Led by Dr. Dwight Moore, Industrial Psychologist and coach to corporate executives, you will learn the principles of "self-leadership" to decrease the time it takes to complete your dissertation and increase your enjoyment of the process.
