Description

MassBioEd coaching sessions for non-U.S.-born life sciences professionals offer in-depth training on ways to become more confident communicating inside and outside of their organization.

Engaging effectively as a member of a team.
Flexibility and adaptability, “going with the flow” during periods of change.
For project leadership/management roles, conflict resolution, being proactive, motivating team members and giving constructive feedback.
