CFA: WRITING RETREAT Nov. 24-28 Doctoral Academy Business & Leadership Ethics J

[Cassandra Grützner]

Dear colleagues,

We are delighted to announce the launch of the Doctoral Academy “Business and Leadership Ethics,” an initiative hosted by the Wittenberg Center for Global Ethics (WCGE) and the Friede Springer Chair of Business Ethics and Management Accounting (MLU). This distinguished program, generously funded by the KSG Foundation, offers doctoral candidates a platform to advance their research, engage with renowned scholars, and foster meaningful connections between theoretical inquiry and practical application within the fields of business, and leadership ethics.  For a deeper look into the Doctoral Academy, make sure to check out our brochure.

 

 

APPLY NOW FOR OUR WRITING RETREAT - November 24-28, 2024

 

Our first event, the Writing Retreat, provides an exceptional opportunity for you to make substantial progress on your doctoral thesis. Set in the historic town of Wittenberg (45 minutes from Berlin), this four-day retreat is designed to offer a structured, yet inspiring environment where you can dedicate time to your writing, overcome challenges such as writer’s block, and engage with fellow researchers.

 

 

Participants will benefit from:

 

• Focused writing sessions that promote productivity and concentration
• Opportunities for scholarly exchange with doctoral candidates from various disciplines
• Workshops on key academic skills such as writing techniques, time management, and research development
• A serene and stimulating setting, fostering both intellectual growth and personal reflection
• Be part of a supportive community and join our alumni network

 

Who is it for?
The Writing Retreat is open to doctoral students enrolled at European universities who are working on topics related to business, or leadership ethics, broadly construed. Advanced Master’s students with an academic focus, as well as early-stage career researchers who have recently completed their PhD, are also very welcome to apply.

 

All academic disciplines and backgrounds are welcome. The WCGE has hosted a colourful mix of scholars before - from traditional ethicists, experimental economists, social psychologists to economic engineers and computer scientists. If your research even touches upon topics of ethics in business, leadership, or organizational behavior, this is the place for you to contribute and grow.

 

 

Dates: November 24 – 28, 2024
Location: WCGE, Schlossstraße 10, Lutherstadt Wittenberg

 

Costs: For 20 participants, we are able to offer partial funding by the KSG Foundation. For only 50,00€,  we are offering a room at the Leucorea, breakfast, lunches and two dinners, as well as the program. (Please note that travel expenses are not covered.)
Please register here until October 31^st, 2024. We will send out acceptance letters on a rolling basis.

 

If you are unable to attend the Writing Retreat but would like to stay informed about future events hosted by the Doctoral Academy, please just send me a quick message and I'll make sure to send you our future CFAs: cassandra.gruetzner@ethicsinbusiness.eu

 

We look forward to welcoming you to Wittenberg for a week of focused writing, stimulating discussions, and the chance to form valuable academic connections.
