Unite! Networking Hub (Session 5) | Networking and mentoring for administrative staff

This Unite! Networking Hub session is all about solving upcoming tasks among administrative staff. Learn about SekretariaNet, an initiative started at TU Darmstadt over 15 years ago, and discuss on motivation, engagement and building a supportive network.

Universities are complex and continuously growing and changing organisations. Thus administrative staff depends to a high degree on up to date information and a supportive network for solving upcoming tasks. We founded SekretariaNet and have developed it over more than 15 years into a vital support. We would like to share with you our experiences on motivating colleagues, good starting points and how to keep going without exhausting committed networkers.

You want to discuss how to deal with upcoming tasks in a complex and continuously changing organisation? The Unite! Networking Hub session on 24 February, hosted by Heidi Rossmann and Anja Spangenberg, is open to administrative staff within the Unite! Alliance interested to learn about SekretariaNet, developed at TU Darmstadt, and to share experiences on how to cope with these challenges. Join this session to discuss, share experiences, and exchange best practices.
