As a result, in June 2021, the CI CoE Pilot and CI4Resilience (which explores the impact of the pandemic on MF CI personnel) brought together staff from MFs in a one day, virtual workshop to discuss their experiences and the challenges they face with developing and sustaining a vibrant workforce. This workshop focused on three main MF workforce challenges: working in remote or distributed teams, working in non-traditional environments, and creating a work culture that taps into intrinsic motivations. The workshop discussed the creative ways MFs are meeting these challenges while making work with an MF attractive to potential hires and worthy of existing staff’s continued engagement. For instance, two MF workshop speakers spoke of innovative training opportunities they have designed to strengthen staff development. One is a simulated computing training environment in the States aimed at preparing IceCube staff to work efficiently during their long stays at the South Pole, away from friends and family and the usual day-to-day routines. Those that participate in this training feel more confident and are more successful overall when working at the South Pole. The other is an RCRV program that allows early-career oceanographers to serve on training cruises. This provides them with the opportunity to learn how to best collaborate and communicate with ship operators (the ship’s CI professionals). The alumni of this program have reported additional successes in their work as a result of the program. MFs offer some unique experiences to their staff, providing them with the ability to be a part of something larger than themselves— performing work ... Report South pole Zenodo South Pole |
