Sometimes it&#8217;s productive; sometimes it&#8217;s fraught. Sometimes we love sharing ideas with each other; sometimes we need a break from each other. Some supervisors become true mentors and lifelong supporters; sometimes the relationship falls down completely.<\/p>\n<p>This month, we&#8217;ll be posting about how to get the most out of your supervision experience. We&#8217;ll feature articles, tips &amp; tricks, and interviews. Keep an eye out also for our highlight of the month &#8211; a series of posts in which we&#8217;ll feature the anonymous thoughts of dozens of students and supervisors who responded when we asked: <em>what do you wish your supervisor\/student knew?\u00a0<\/em>(Spoiler alert: they were very honest in their answers!)<\/p>\n<p>So subscribe or follow Thesislink on social media, if you haven&#8217;t already, and get ready to really think about your supervision.
