In this open forum, we invite attendees to share their professional challenges and unlikely victories from the past six months. Which accomplishments are you most proud of? How have you survived amid budget cuts and layoffs, or what skills are you looking to expand on in upcoming roles? What else has helped you adapt to new challenges? As the upheaval in the industry continues, we especially welcome stories of transition from those moving on to new roles in or out of institutions.
The event will begin with a presented case study on a difficult project completed during quarantine. Participants will then enter breakout rooms to discuss their own experiences and hear tips from colleagues far and wide. The groups will then reconvene to share out these lessons of nimbleness, tenacity, and perseverance.

We’ll share information on past sessions and what worked well, review the forms you’ll need to complete, and answer any questions you might have.
