Session 3
 
Minor Theme: Diversity and Dynamite!

• How good are we at diversifying and obtaining new results or finding new ways of doing things in academia – and benefitting from diversity in an intended way?
• How can we achieve full potential, given the fact that we have too small a representation of women amongst our staff, faculty, and students?
• How can we turn diversity away from being a complication and rather focus on what it can give us in potential outcomes, results or products that we could not have obtained without diversity?

• Job announcements
• Promotion criteria
• Student recruiting
• Criteria for acceptance for studies
• How we talk amongst ourselves and describe ourselves
• How we explain and describe student courses and classes in the catalogues
• How we act and what we say as leaders
• How do we welcome weird solutions and disruptive ideas?
• How tolerant are we for other cultural or conceptual ways of thinking?
• How quickly do we jump to conclusion and interpretations of unfamiliar designs?
• How often do we ask an extra question instead of disregarding something as nonsense?
