Leadership and HR responseability

Leadership experience can be an advantage when applying for a professorship, but if it cannot be proven, this is usually no exclusion criterion.

Leadership and HR responsibility can be documented through leadership functions in research projects or through leading junior research groups. Supervision of students and - where possible - of doctoral candidates as well as already completed qualifying theses supervised by you can also be cited.

Human Resources Development offers you in-depth further training in this area as part of the management development programme and the JLU's continuing education and training programme. If you have discipline-specific needs as a postdoc without formal HR responsibility, for example "Leading in the lab", you can find corresponding courses in our offer.
