Commitment: from Intention to Action (NL/EN)

Design a realistic challenge for yourself using our tools.

Teacher: Josefien Staats (Medior trainer/coach)
Method: Workshop
On-campus seminar

Have you ever formulated a dream or goal for yourself? How are you going to get there? Making choices can be hard, but choice persistence perhaps even harder. What is it really, that you say 'yes' to and why? And what about getting things done? However complicated: it starts with small, concrete steps.

This seminar will help you make choices that are important to you and actually implement your intention. You will exercise this skill by taking a short-term goal. By setting an appointment with yourself in the form of a 'commitment' within a few weeks, you will learn to design a realistic challenge for yourself. You then carry out that commitment yourself, and critically examine it before, during and after with a fellow student.

Please note that this seminar can count as a module of the ‘Personal Professional Skills Lab’ for FSW bachelor students of IRO, Political Science, Psychology and Cultural Anthropology studies.
