Promotionsbetreuung mit Erfolg
Gute Betreuung ist wesentlicher Erfolgsfaktor im Promotionsprozess. Den Enthusiasmus und die Energie der Promovierenden bis zur erfolgreichen Abgabe der Arbeit zu unterstützen, ist eine Aufgabe, die viel Zeit kostet. Gleichzeitig bietet sie die Chance, die eigenen Erfahrungen zu reflektieren und zu teilen. Eine produktive Betreuungsbeziehung kann für beide Seiten gewinnbringend sein: Für die Doktorandin oder den Doktoranden, die zur wissenschaftlichen Eigenständigkeit gelangen, aber auch für die Betreuerin oder den Betreuer, die neue Kolleg*innen gewinnt und fördert. Aber was heißt gute Betreuung? Auch wenn es viele Leitfäden und Empfehlungen existieren, sind am Betreuungsprozess stets Individuen beteiligt, mit ihren persönlichen Stärken und Schwächen. Im Dialog zu bleiben bildet daher die Grundlage für eine gelungene Betreuungsbeziehung
