Please note, this workshop is for B-BIC or Harvard Catalyst members
only. If you are unsure if you qualify as a B-BIC or Harvard Catalyst
member, please contact learning@b-bic.org BEFORE REGISTERING. For
the scientifically trained, moving up typically means moving out of
the research environment and into new work environments that require
stronger interpersonal skills for
clear communication, collaboration, leadership and
management. MANAGING YOURSELF BEFORE MANAGING OTHERS is intended for
academic scientists who are anticipating a transition or have already
taken on new roles that require additional skillsets. This small group
coaching session will provide actionable information to help you move
toward a self-improvement goal that you feel is both important, and
has proven difficult to achieve. In this 4-hour session,
participants will begin with their improvement goal and employ the
Immunity to Change (ITC) method to build an understanding of why the
goal is difficult and build their own path toward improvement. ITC
was created by Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey, and is grounded in more
than 30 years of research on ***** development. It is the foundation
for several books and two companies: Minds at Work, and Way to Grow,
Inc. ITC is currently used worldwide by leaders, managers, and
executive teams to support personal and professional growth. Read

your facilitator: Cheryl Vaughan Ph.D., Ed.M. Cheryl is the Managing
Director of B-BIC Learning and Development Programs and a trained ITC
facilitator. Cheryl served as a Lecturer in the Department of
Molecular and Cellular Biology in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences
at Harvard University, and spent 6 years at Harvard’s Division of
Continuing Education as the Program Director for the Master’s
degree in Biotechnology. She transformed the program into a
selective, cross-training curriculum for professional scientists by
identifying and addressing gaps in technical and adaptive skill sets.
Cheryl went on to earn her Master's in Education at Harvard where she
focused on ***** development and cognition. Her current work at the
B-BIC Skills Development Center is focused on the creation of open
access learning opportunities for the academic research community.
Making tools and resources available to support adaptive learning is
one of her top priorities. In January 2016, Cheryl was invited to
lead an ITC workshop at the Science of Team Science conference. The
workshop attracted administrators, faculty, program directors, and
department chairs, all interested in bringing the ITC method back to
their home institution to support collaborative research projects. She
is now bringing this tool to the B-BIC and Harvard Catalyst community.
