Based on insights from the cognitive sciences and psychology this seminar provides students with an understanding of the way human beings think and interact. Going from there personal and social competencies will be further developed on an individual basis guided by the following questions:

How do successful people in all fields organize the things they have to do?
Why do some people enjoy going to the gym and others don't?
Why do most time management tools fail?
Why do some people just get along with everyone and others don't?
Why is there always someone in the team who is less committed than the rest?
Why do people make bad decisions?
What makes a great leader?
What makes an influential speaker?
How do we know what we want?
And how do we get there?

This seminar and workshop does not only provide answers to these questions. It also aims at providing participants with an understanding of their own individual cognitive structure and a set of tools to make use of the incredible capacities our brain has to offer. Furthermore, topics of the workshop range from communication skills, presenting ideas, creative thinking, group dynamics and leadership to self organization, self confidence and effective goal setting.

The lecture course is suitable for:

• Media informatics students (Master)
