ISEF doctorate students recently had a successful meetup which included a workshop emphasizing the importance of communication skills and conflict resolution led by executive coach Efrat Zanger. Efrat is a seasoned organizational consultant and team-development expert, who has written a book on organizational culture.
The students later enjoyed a discussion with Adi Keissar the founder of Ars Poetica, about the cultural and political dynamics of language, identity, and the impact of poetry on the cultural world in Israel.
Overall, it was an extraordinary meeting that served as a step towards equipping young Israelis from the periphery with the necessary skills to succeed in the academic and professional spheres.
