More about Liesbeth

As a research team, we enjoyed this workshop! Liesbeth explains with clear examples how you can make more impact with your research by thinking a step further. An interactive workshop with a lot of positive energy!”

Thanks a lot for the super cool workshop. The tips and tools provided were super useful and I really enjoyed the hands-on exercises!

Liesbeth and Stephan inspired me to think better about the communication of my research. I thought it was especially cool to learn how to convey a message in such a way that you can attract attention even with the most complex topics. In the future I will package all my messages in a more creative format."
