As a researcher you are called to investigate, discover and reveal. A skilful vocation leverages your skill set to build a career that serves a larger purpose. Your research brings value to your discipline, your institution and society at large. You chose academic research for a myriad of great reasons. Stopping to take stock of whether academia is still delivering for you is important but gets put on the bottom of the to-do list.
Are you thriving or feeling slowly smothered by the itchy, scratchy academic comfort blanket? Do you recognise any of these?
Time to take stock, unravel the blanket and weave a new career with the three strong threads of your values, strengths and courage that your research career has developed. Is it time to leave?
Over de auteur
I ‘left’ academia over 20 years ago, leaving behind a medical imaging postdoc and the not so tragic backstory of a physics degree and Ph D from the University of Cambridge. I find myself wondering if I have in fact left academia or not. Those 20 plus years have been spent empowering researchers to embrace their careers positively and proactively – academic or otherwise. I’ve worked with thousands of researchers from around the globe as a coach, trainer and speaker.This book embraces the career route the statistics tells us most researchers will take.
