 Perfectionism is very common in high achievers, and Harvard is full of perfectionists surrounded by other perfectionists. In some ways, it’s what helps them achieve. But after a point, it can become very limiting and hard to change, even when people know it holds them back.

 Hugh Kearns will help us deal with this problem. His workshop, which emphasizes a selective perfectionism approach, will cover subjects such as:

 Recognizing perfectionistic behaviors  
The pros and cons of it  
How it impacts your research  
Understanding the psychology behind it  
Specific strategies  
Coping with mistakes and setbacks
