Coaching for Researchers and Leaders

What is coaching?

Coaching is a personalized and collaborative process aimed at helping individuals achieve specific goals, overcome challenges, and maximize their potential. In various fields, including academia, sports, business, and personal development, coaching is a supportive and transformative relationship between a coach and a client aimed at supporting the client's achievements. Coaches work to understand the unique needs and aspirations of their clients, offering guidance, encouragement, and constructive feedback to facilitate skill development and problem-solving. The ultimate aim of coaching is to empower individuals to make informed decisions, enhance their performance, and achieve success in their chosen fields.

Supervising the Modern Doctorate

laptop and book with hands

The modern doctorate can be Professional, Practice based, by Public Works/Publication or by Research. It fulfils a variety of purposes, ranging from knowledge exchange between industry and academia, the development of higher levels of professional practice and individualised development programmes for practitioners of advanced standing. A significant driver in the growth of such programmes is their contribution to training individuals who are ‘creative, critical and autonomous intellectual risk takers’ capable of contributing to all sectors where deep rigorous analysis is required.’ (ERA 2010).

Designing and supervising such doctorates requires a broadening in the focus and context of the study from work within a single discipline within the academy to addressing multidisciplinary issues within the workplace itself. The corresponding shift in purpose, form, structure and context of the doctorate (Jackson, 2009) poises some significant pedagogical issues that must be addressed by the supervisory team.

We work with HEIs to develop supervisory training programmes that work with the Research Strategy of the Institution whilst contributing to the academics' own research development.
