Personal impact and confidence

Today was spent in a workshop on communication skills with Vox Coaching. Probably not the ideal time to take a day off from PhD work, but Vox had run a previous workshop here before Christmas which received good feedback.

The day was really fun with lots of interesting exercises to get us thinking about how we come across. One i particularly liked was about status, and how your perceived status affects your interactions with others. There was also some networking practise, which ordinarily you never get the opportunity to do!
