In this workshop you will have the opportunity to reflect and articulate your key areas of impact (in research and practice) in your career to date. Using these insights, we will bring you into an interactive hybrid workshop environment to test how you would bring your expertise to bear on a complex/wicked problem. Working in interdisciplinary teams you will design how best to coordinate your collective expertise in solving the problem. The outcomes of this work include:

• Gain a better understanding and ability to articulate your key skills and expertise
• Develop T Shaped research competencies (developing curiosity, empathy, understanding and appreciation of other disciplines/areas of expertise)
• Develop personal agency and resilience in learning how to adapt your knowledge and expertise to novel situations.
