Content and goals
Large parts of the research landscape in Germany and other countries are still dominated by men in top positions. This goes hand in hand with a rather masculine communication culture that some women/people passing as female can’t always deal with.
As a woman, do you always have to adapt to a purely male context, or perhaps a middle ground will do as well? How do I successfully present myself as a woman in my professional environment in a way that makes me visible? These and other questions will be discussed in this interactive workshop.

In this workshop, the participants will learn and / or perform:

  • Different communication cultures
  • Sensitization exercises for power and dominance gestures
  • Performative speaking, presence and appearance to make a lasting impression
  • How to deal with bullshit: quick-wittedness for responding to inappropriate comments

Methods

  • mindmapping
  • theoretical input
  • practice units in group and individual work
  • offline individual work
  • peer-to-peer feedback
  • dicussion in plenum
    Self-presentation for women
