What Human Resources can do for you...

Feedback – giving and receiving

Aim: ‘Feedback matters. It really matters. Good feedback is like a road map, a site map, an energy drink, a bungee jump, or meditative moment for your brain. It makes you smarter, more focused, more confident, and more capable of doing your best work.’ (Jill Geisler, Poynter Faculty, Florida)
How:
Presentation of basic principles behind method.
Exercises

Reflecting teams

Aim: Introducing a tool for structured dialogue and reflection.
There are many possible solutions to complex problems. Einstein suggested that you cannot solve a problem by using the same way of thinking that has created or sustains the problem.
How:
Presentation of basic principles behind method
Exercises

Appreciative Inquiry

Aim: Appreciative Inquiry is a particular way of asking questions and envisioning the future that fosters positive relationships and builds on the basic goodness in a person, a situation, or an organization. In so doing, it enhances a system's capacity for collaboration and change.
How:
Introducing the basic principles – here called assumptions – behind the philosophy/theory. Introducing and applying the 5 D model on a specific process; Define, discover, dream, design, deliver.

The LIFE MUS concept

Aim: Improving the yearly meeting – the performance and development reviews – both the preparation, the dialogue and follow-up.
How:
Presenting LIFE’s competence development strategy and the ideas behind the MUS concept.

Jung’s Type Index

Aim: Understand yourself – and not least your colleagues – better: Not everyone thinks, works, or acts like you. It is easy to label your colleagues as lazy, crazy, or disorganized when their behaviour does not match your expectations, but such name calling rarely helps us understand personality differences. JTI helps you capture individuals' preferred usage of the psychological functions identified by Carl Jung.
How:
Group exercises
Individual test
Individual session with certified consultant

The Career Model

Aim: What is a ’succesful career’ ‘What motivates you?’ and ‘Do your answers match?’

The Competence CV

Aim: What do we mean when we say ‘competences’?, what are1st and 2nd order competences?, how do I describe my own competences – or competences required in a specific job.
How:

Exercises

Ad hoc activities

Aim: Planning a day away from the office with your department or research group? Human Resources can help you plan and facilitate the day. We can host a specific workshop, or lead you safely through the whole day.
