BRN Academic Practice Lab: Navigating Workload, Well-Being and Research Momentum – Oct 15, 2026

Session Description

Topic: Navigating Workload, Well-Being and Research Momentum

Academic work often involves balancing competing demands, including teaching, service, administration, research, mentoring and personal responsibilities. But how can we balance it all in a way that is sustainable?

This interactive workshop explores practical strategies for managing workloads while protecting well-being and maintaining meaningful progress on research and creative projects.

Participants will reflect on their current commitments, identify common obstacles to research momentum and develop realistic approaches to prioritization, boundary-setting and sustainable productivity. The session emphasizes working more effectively rather than working more, with attention to self-care, self-compassion and long-term career sustainability.

This event will take place virtually. Please register to attend.
