Episode 14
Retreat! Research retreat, that is!
In this episode we talked about the research retreat Steph did with her lab recently. We talk about what went well, what she'd do differently, and Mary offered up lots of ideas for what she'd like to do at her own lab retreat.
Key points we discussed:
- Planning ahead and how to get the most out of your introverted team members.
- The importance of following up with advancements made during the retreat.
- How we're always learning new things about our team members, even after spending several years with some of them!
