Tilburg University Ambition: Room for everyone's talent

We are pleased to present the Tilburg University aspiration paper as part of a nationwide initiative for a new way of recognizing and appreciating the talents and strengths of our academic staff, be it in research, education, impact, or leadership. It allows for more differentiation in career tracks in line with your own preferences and competences. The program also emphasizes our appreciation for team science and team spirit and wants to contribute to a more attractive work setting, which takes better into account your own talents without increasing work pressure. This paper has been written in close collaboration with the Tilburg Steering Committee Recognition & Rewards and is offered to the Tilburg academic community. In the months to come our ambition will be presented and discussed with all relevant stakeholders and followed up by experimenting with the new approach and additional policy initiatives.
