The Mental Health Research Speaker Series - Excitement or Dread? Returning to our pre-pandemic lives.

Wednesday, July 21, 2021 13:00to14:00

This informal talk will discuss how we can adjust to the transition back to working in our offices at ɬ﷬. Professor Koestner will review relevant research on habits, goals, and routines. He will highlight a new concept in motivation called “need-crafting” which argues that, as we get older, we should seek to redesign our work lives so that they better satisfy our needs for autonomy, relatedness, and competence.
