New classes available!

Many of my clients get stuck right at the point where thoughts and dreams move into action — and for good reason. Leaving academia and entering a different career or job trajectory is more than a workplace change. It’s a cultural shift, and it brings along all of the baggage and translation problems and confusions that come with cultural shifts.

That’s why I’m really excited about two new courses I’m offering in the next few months and I wanted to let you know about them.

Overcoming the 3 Barriers to the Post-Academic Job Search

The first, Overcoming the 3 Barriers to the Post-Academic Job Search, is a free 90-minute teleclass designed to give you the practical tools you need to make the transition from academia to a post-academic job.

  • 5 primary ways academics are misunderstood and how to demonstrate your difference
  • Strategies for identifying and translating academic experience into non-academic skills and accomplishments
  • 6 steps to running a successful job search outside of academia

Becoming Post-Academic

The second, Becoming Post-Academic, is a six-week teleclass designed to help you craft a comprehensive and successful job search. It includes the following:

  • Concrete action steps that get you to your goal
  • A system that tells you which steps to do when – and that you can use whenever you decide to change jobs
  • Evidence of your experience, skills, and accomplishments
  • Strategies for researching companies and translating your talents into their needs
  • Ways to succeed at interviewing
  • Non-scary strategies for networking
  • 9 steps to simplifying negotiations – and getting what you want
  • The confidence to move forward and actually step into a new career
