About the event
Dealing with rejections as a researcher can be a disheartening and discouraging experience, especially when you have invested significant time and effort into your work. Even the most senior academics with decades of experience are no exception to the emotional rollercoaster that rejection can take.
It is crucial not to let rejections break you, but to view them as an opportunity to refine your approach, stay resilient and keep pushing forward. But how do you really get back up after the seemingly endless rejections, revisions and resubmissions?
In this upcoming webinar, lead of the Women in Research initiative, ARC Laureate Fellow and John Curtin Distinguished Professor Sharon Parker (Curtin University) will share the evidence-based tips on overcoming the feelings and setbacks that come with being rejected, and turning them into success.
She will be joined by ARC Laureate Fellow Professor Sara Dolnicar (The University of Queensland), who will share her personal reflections on dealing with and bouncing back from rejections.
