Pitch yourself!

Pitch yourself and your work in 3 sentences!

Imagine you’re at an interdisciplinary soft skills workshop. You have to introduce yourself in max three sentences. The others want to know what you’re currently doing and why you’re doing what you’re doing.


 Write in this week's forum. Comment on your colleagues’ pitches.
