"Managing your Supervisor"
To get the most out of your PhD, you need to take charge of your relationship with your supervisor. In this interactive session,
we will cover a number of topics: understanding your supervisor (as a first step to managing them), manipulating them, expectations,
pitfalls, conflict, and your overall research career. Whilst many of the topics are focused on the PhD-supervisor relationship, much
holds true for other similar relationships like that between PostDoc and supervisor. Please come and share your questions and problems.
