Frictions and annoyances are often interpersonal and we encounter them every day. It is therefore obvious that feelings of disturbance can also arise among those involved in doctoral matters. Different expectations, needs and interests can sometimes lead to conflicts between supervisors and doctoral researchers if we do not communicate our views and opinions objectively, transparently and clearly.

Sometimes it helps to inform a neutral person about one's own situation and to reflect on one's own actions and attitudes through a change of perspective in order to arrive at a satisfactory solution. philGRAD offers you the opportunity for a confidential discussion in the event of an annoyance, disturbance or even conflict. You are also welcome to come to a meditation talk with your conflict partner.
