Journey to Digital Estonia: A Visit to the University of Tartu
How do they take care of their employees elsewhere? We took a closer look at HR practices at the University of Tartu.
Management skills training sessions for supervisors of the Faculty of Science MU
During November 2021, a total of four full-day management skills training sessions were held for supervisors of the Faculty of Science MU, as a part of the HR Excellence in Research Award/HRS4R action plan. The first two of the training sessions were held on 9 November 2021 in a presence form for the supervisors of the dean's and administrative departments at Kotlářská Street and on 10 November 2021 for the supervisors of research staff at the Bohunice Campus. The following two sessions were held online for all supervisors together. All these training sessions were funded by the project of the Ministry of Education and Science, Human Resources Development and International Orientation of Research at MU.
The lecturer from Image Lab, MUDr. Mgr. Vratislav Kalenda, MSc. in SHRM, prepared an experiential training for the participants, which included management games, case studies allowing to simulate decision-making processes in challenging managerial situations, theoretical blocks focused on management and organization of teamwork, employee motivation and commitment or training in handling critical situations in communication.
We would like to thank all participants for their active participation and we hope that they found inspiration for their future management activities.
We are still planning to organize a training on How to conduct evaluation interviews at the end of January 2022, which will be primarily offered to the managers of institutes starting to implement the staff appraisal process.
