Navigating the bumps and hurdles of graduate studies can be a major source of stress. The good news is that you can find effective ways to tackle these challenges by leveraging the skills you already have. Taking a solution-focused approach to graduate education emphasizes your competencies, strengths and possibilities instead of problems, deficits and weaknesses.
In this hands-on workshop, you will learn practical techniques that help you shift your focus from problems to solutions.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Use practical solution-focused techniques to address common challenges;
- Identify key hope-activating and goal-setting skills;
