Course Catalogue

Our digital tools – particularly smartphones and related notifications – challenge our attentional abilities as they increase the fragmentation of our tasks and may engender fatigue and stress. This workshop aims to introduce you to the functioning of your attention processes and the related strain technologies can put on such processes. During the workshop, you will actively participate by sharing your experience related to your smartphone use and related impact, and you will discover attention refocusing techniques helping to alleviate stress and feelings of cognitive overload. Deadline for enrolment: Two days before the course. Christelle Théron is a full professor of strategic management at Toulouse School of Management. Her research focuses on managers (first-line ones), and their daily practices – particularly strategizing ones.
