Outreach Identity
If you are having a “Bad Outreach Day” remember to reach out to colleagues:•Other NRC Outreach Coordinators•Your world region outreach consortiums•Form an International Outreach group within your campus
We often wear more than one hat and balancing can be difficult• Try as we might we can’t give 100% to each constituency•Sometimes a good idea is just that, file it away for a time when you need a fresh idea•Find ways to develop yourself professionally through trainings, conferences, courses, etc.
