This interactive workshop will be facilitated by staff members of UBC Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies and Counselling Services to assist graduate students in building strong working relationships with their supervisor and committee members to support their progress through their graduate programs.
Become aware of conversation skills and tools to support a positive relationship with your supervisor from the beginning, and learn to sidestep or manage potential conflict through the establishment of expectations, problem-resolution skills, and holding confident conversations.
You will be invited to share in chat, vocal, and small group/breakout room discussions.
