The Development Program’s series of training modules for directors of SAS institutes participating in the HRS4R SAS strategy concluded on June 26, 2024.
“I participated in all four prepared modules. The trainings were prepared at a high professional level and each of the selected topics provided important information needed to improve the management and leadership skills of directors. Individual interview exercises, for example in difficult work situations, methods of obtaining feedback were extremely useful. A secondary result of the organized trainings was the opportunity to meet and get to know the directors of SAS institutes across individual science departments. The established contacts only confirmed that it is necessary to continue such practice (e.g. in the form of informal meetings of directors) in the future” evaluated the training Mgr. Peter Gömöry, PhD., director of the Astronomical Institute of the SAS, v. v. i.
“Thank you very much to the HRS4R team for organizing this series of trainings. Their form was easily accessible, the content was instructive and very useful for me in many ways. I recommend it to every director.” Ing. Yvetta Velísková, PhD., director of the Institute of Hydrology of the SAS, v. v. i.:
Mgr. Emanuel Beška, PhD., director of the Institute of Oriental Studies of the SAS, v. v. i. also expressed his satisfaction with the training of directors. “I really appreciate the fact that the SAS Office prepared and organized such an opportunity for us. Also in this form, I would like to thank everyone who participated in the organization of this program. I consider the training of directors to be a very good investment in human capital that will pay off for SAS. The content of the training, the continuity of the individual modules, as well as the experienced trainer were excellent. I recommend the completion of these trainings to managers at all levels of management. Added value was also the possibility of establishing very good relations with colleagues from various centers and institutes of SAS, including those from other departments of the academy.“
