Pre-Work for Day 3: Reading
Please complete this before April 24, 2024
First read this:
Article explaining what lab expectations documents should be like
The ‘Welcome Letter’: A Useful Tool for Laboratories and Teams
“Many PIs seem to assume that their expectations about how the lab functions make so much sense that they do not have to spell it out. Consequently, when confronted with lab members who do not meet their expectations they often attribute the problem to the lab member’s personal failings. Unfortunately this can result in loss of trust, miscommunication, and frustration on both sides.”
Then review these examples:
Example Lab Expectations Document #1
Example Lab Expectations Document #2
Example Lab Expectations Document #3
Finally, what are your thoughts about these prompts?
What perceptions do you have from the examples documents in the pre-reading?
What ideas do you have for your own future expectations document?
