NutriNOR’s leadership training is developed in cooperation with Leaderscope from the Netherlands.

All PhD student members of NutriNOR are invited to join our Leadership Training Program. If you are in the second or third year of your PhD and have not yet joined the program, it is not too late!
You may ask yourself whether joining the program will be a good investment in your academic career. The answer is a definite YES! To become a good researcher and a leader in the field of nutrition, you also need to lead yourself. Leadership means understanding your own strengths and opportunities for growth so that you will have more influence in your work.
The NutriNOR Leadership Training Program will equip future leaders in the broad field of food and nutrition with the necessary mindset and essential skills valued by future employers within academia, industry, and government. These skills, including collaboration, self-management, presentation, influence, and planning are essential for thriving in a work environment. The Leadership program covers the entire PhD project, focusing on topics that are important in the development at each stage of a PhD.
Participants will be guided by experienced trainers from Leaderscope (external link) in communication, mindset, skills, and leadership development.
The Leadership Training Program is tailormade for NutriNOR. The board of NutriNOR expects NutriNOR members to participate in the program.
The training is free of charge for NutriNOR members. Accommodation and travel expenses will also be covered by NutriNOR.
