Career Planning - How We Work Together

Each engagement is 1:1, structured and tailored to your institution, role and timeline. You leave with a clear plan, not open‑ended reflection.

Step 1 — Preparation

You complete a focused questionnaire so I can understand your current position, aspirations and constraints. You’ll also provide your institution’s performance expectations and any other relevant documents. This ensures our first session is efficient, targeted and grounded in your context.

Step 2 — Three Strategy Sessions

Across three structured 1:1 sessions, we build a realistic five‑year career plan aligned with your goals, strengths and institutional realities. You finish with a clear direction, defined milestones and a plan you can act on immediately.

Step 3 — Follow up (if needed)

Follow‑up sessions can be arranged on an ad‑hoc basis to adjust your plan if circumstances change, ensuring your plan remains relevant and achievable.

Workshops & Programs for Universities

I deliver targeted workshops designed to strengthen academic capability and support sustainable workforce development. Each workshop is tailored to the institution’s strategic priorities, performance expectations and academic career frameworks, ensuring relevance and immediate applicability.

Workshops and programs are available for:

  • Early Career Academics establishing a foundational academic identity and capability

  • Mid‑Career Academics preparing for promotion, leadership or role transition

  • Women in STEM seeking strategic clarity, confidence and progression in under‑represented disciplines

  • Emerging Leaders developing influence, visibility and long‑term direction in teaching and/or research

  • Early and Mid-Career Researchers planning and developing their research strategy.

These workshops complement institutional leadership by providing structured, strategic career development support that busy academic managers often lack the capacity to deliver. Content is grounded in a deep understanding of university systems, workload models, performance expectations and the realities of academic progression.

I partner with universities to deliver programs that enhance academic capability, improve retention, and support a high‑performing, future‑ready workforce.

If your institution is seeking a reliable, experienced provider of academic career development workshops, I welcome the opportunity to discuss your requirement
