Age brings the benefit of experience and looking back at my job as a professor, there are a couple of things that fall into the category “I wish someone had told me that earlier”. In this seminar, I would like to share some of the things I learned and which, I hope, will be useful for younger scientists.

The questions I will touch upon include

• • What is productivity, for a scientist?
  • What are qualities of successful people?
  • How can one create motivation and success?
  • How to organize myself? (project management; getting things done)
  • How to communicate effectively?
  • Seeking fulfillment

The seminar is targeted at PhD students, postdocs, and junior group leaders.
