Do you feel overwhelmed and out of balance? Do you feel stuck with writing or unable to see any research progress? Are you not sure about your long term goals? Do you find it difficult to see yourself finishing the PhD? Do you have problems with managing your time and being productive? Do you lack confidence? Do you find it challenging to put together an effective working structure? Do you feel distracted? Do you need support with any aspect of your PhD?
If you are a researcher and feel like you are experiencing the above and need support in achieving your research goals get in touch with me. We will start with a coaching conversation which itself will move you forwards on your path and bring you clarity over your next steps. You will experience how I work and if you then think coaching is right for you and we both feel we can work together, we will design a plan that will get you where you want to be.
If you are working at a university or research institution and would like to provide additional support to your PhD students and Post-docs, so they successfully finish their projects contact me and we can discuss how I could help.
Who I work with:
I collaborate with institutions and universities to coach their researchers - including PhD students, Post-docs and Early Career Researchers - assisting them to get the results they want while focusing on the process and individual steps leading them to achieving their academic and other professional goals. My work with PhD students focuses on supporting them to navigate through challenges leading to a successful completion of their doctorate and moving on to the next stage - whatever that might be for them. I cover all stages of the PhD process from year one to the final year including viva preparation and the post-viva phase.
I have collaborated with:
I work with individual researchers based at international universities to support them to be great at what they do.
How I work:
As your coach, I will work with you to increase awareness of the options you have to move you forwards and explore these through focused questions.
I will empower you to take action, navigate through challenges successfully and encourage you to design the next steps bringing you towards where you want to be.
I will work with you on a one to one basis through a combination of face to face, skype or telephone coaching sessions.
Results:
My clients are creative and have big dreams. They have many ideas which often happen at the same time but through us working together they start using their creativity to build a new structure and design their steps to reach something bigger with positive impact on them and others. They release habits that are not helping them and instead start new ones that elevate them.
The main results gained through our work together are:
Increased self-awareness
A sense of perspective, clarity over the options available to you and your next steps
Designed personal action plan to achieve your goals
Increased self-belief and self-confidence
A ‘can do’ attitude to be accountable and commit to yourself
