Leadership and mistakes: How to get over them and remain constructive? (Podcast in German)

Mistakes happen, no matter how hard we try to avoid them. Worse, the same mistakes happen over and over again, making our learning curve look pretty bad. This dynamic is no different in teams, leaving leaders scratching their heads about what went wrong and what they could do differently in the future. In this episode, two leaders share their own experiences: Thomas Loosen, systemic therapist and former head of the HRO (high reliability organisation) centre at the Gösgen Nuclear Power Plant in Switzerland, meets actress Franziska Ball, who takes on the role of the other manager. They start by describing the problem and what helped them resolve it over time.

Leadership and reintegration after a mental health crisis: What does a sustainable return to work look like? (Podcast in German)

How can leaders and teams help shape a sustainable return to work after a mental health crisis? In this episode, we discuss with Ute Schröder, an expert in occupational integration management, the different phases of the reintegration process and related best practices for managers and teams. Contrary to popular belief, this process does not start on the first day back to work, but rather while the employee is still on sick leave. The active involvement of various stakeholders over a longer time period, including direct supervisors, team members, and occupational health professionals, is therefore required. Ute Schröder also reports on her research and transfer projects with the Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health in Germany.

TUM Global | 6. Neuroscience: From Cybernetics to the Future of Medicine

Humans have long pondered how the workings of the human brain. Indeed evidence of holes drilled in skulls from our pre-historic ancestors suggests that attempts to heal pain, alleviate health issues and experiment with brain function is as old as we are.

Join us for this special episode with Professor Josef Rauschecker, of Georgetown University in Washington, where we explore the advancements made by neuroscience in recent years, and examine how accelerations in technology and interdisciplinary research has exciting implications for the future of human health. Josef has dedicated over forty years to the discipline of neuroscience, and was appointed as a TUM Ambassador in 2019 in recognition of his efforts. Originally a TUM graduate, and for many years a Hans Fischer Senior Fellow at the TUM Institute for Advanced Studies, we are delighted to name Professor Rauschecker as a firm member of our community.

On 27 June 2022, shortly after Prof. Josef Rauschecker’s podcast was recorded, one of Josef’s first teachers in the field of neuroscience, Sir Colin Blakemore of Oxford University passed away. Much admired all over the world for his pioneering studies in the early 1970s on the influence of early visual exposure on the development of our ability to see, Sir Colin was the youngest ever professor of Physiology at Oxford at the age of 35. Josef Rauschecker gained his first experience of single cell recordings in the cerebral cortex of young kittens in Blakemore’s laboratory at the University of Cambridge. He was invited by Blakemore to do his PhD thesis in his laboratory, but declined because his fiancée was waiting for him in Munich.

It is also important to note that Prof. Rauschecker‘s tinnitus project with Prof. Weber received an enormous boost through the arrival of Prof. Barbara Wollenberg, Director of the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, at the Klinikum rechts der Isar in 2019. She and her team will collaborate in this research project, which will raise the profile of the ENT clinic in the field of tinnitus.
