Dr. Reineke and Dr. Haynes (Department of Chemistry) organized, ran, and participated in a COACh workshop held on November 5. Two presentations were given at this workshop and several members of the Reineke lab were in attendance.

The presentation for postdocs and graduate students was focused on strategic persuasion and the presentation for faculty was focused on academic leadership.
