Content

This workshop provides you with a toolbox for moving from efficiency to effectiveness as a doctoral student. More specifically, you will learn three academic productivity tools; the 80/20 principle, end product focus and the unit method.

The background to this workshop is that we often focus on the content of our work but sometimes forget to pay attention to our own work process or how we work, think and act. However, the process is central in order to complete our work on time and feel well during the process.

This workshop provides a short and introductory version of the longer course "Bli klar i tid och må bra på vägen" (Swedish version of the course) and "Finish on time and feel good along the way" (English version of the course).
