Helping researchers reflect on what they have to offer with Dr Kate Daubney

In this episode we're joined by Dr. Kate Daubney, Head of Careers & Employability, King's College London (KCL). Kate tells us about her own research and her journey from PhD to heading up the careers team at KCL. She also shares her ideas about how researchers can go beyond the immediate knowledge content of their research to discover the skills and attributes they're developing along the way, and why now is an important time as any to start exploring all the brilliant things researchers have to offer.

In this episode Kate refers to a couple of resources which you may find helpful:

• 'What do I have to offer' module on KCL's Careers & Employability KEATS pages.
• 'Mindset', a book on positive approaches to learning by Carol Dweck, PhD [she also has a good TedTalk on this subject]
• Book an appointment with a Careers Consultant for Researchers at KCL (scroll down to the bottom of this page)

Also you can find the "Women Working in Tech (part 2)" episode which we refer to, wherever you're listening to this episode of Careers in your Ears.
