How to Get Funded Without Really Trying

How to Give (and Receive) Feedback

Giving feedback isn’t the easiest. And giving effective feedback is often easier said than done. Our hope is to provide you with some advice...and a teensy bit of feedback...on some best practices for giving and receiving feedback. 

Handling Rejection

You’ve done the work. You’ve spent weeks and months searching for the perfect funding opportunity and developing the proposal. You’ve waited (probably months) to hear the outcome...only to receive a rejection. Let’s face it, no one likes to feel rejected. Especially when you’ve poured time and endless resources into developing a project. In this episode, we’ll be discussing how to handle rejection. We’ll discuss ways to address those feelings and plan your next steps.

Leading Without a Title

Graduate students are an often-untapped resource for the success and growth of an organization, while also holding positions of critical importance. This is a first-hand account of how a successful program that relies upon and effectively utilizes graduate student experience can not only be effective but can be a model and a leader for others. Graduate students are future leaders in their fields; if we can tap into that expertise early and cultivate their learning, the mutual growth that can take place is immeasurable and vital in our ever-changing world.
