Abstract
By infusing business tools and techniques and cultivating an entrepreneurial mindset, Science Communications Improvement Lab (SCIL) assists students in developing student-led strategic initiatives that could develop into self-sustaining services that positively impact interdisciplinary discussion, dialogue, and collaboration. SCIL's mission is to provide researchers with effective skill development.
In this session, Paul, together with two student members of SCIL, will share their experiences executing student-led strategic initiatives and make a case for a peer coaching model. After sharing their experiences and observations, the SCIL team will attempt to facilitate a discussion using Design Thinking concepts.
