In this social clip of our episode of the PostdocTransformation Show, you will learn why academic CVs are often insufficient for business jobs and how to leverage a PhD mindset for a successful transition. 

Prof. Dr. Eleonore Soei-Winkels shares her personal journey from academia to a role in business during the 2007 financial crisis, the value of skills over academic titles, and the importance of translating scientific skills for business applications. 

Key segments include how to use business language, strategies for LinkedIn visibility, applying the Self-Determination Theory by Ryan & Deci (2000) to career decisions, and creating side projects to leverage research and teaching skills and learn future-proof skills. 

The episode concludes with encouragement to embrace business opportunities as valuable extensions of scientific training.

About me:

In my day job as a psychology professor, I teach my bachelor and master students in real life, how to reorganize processes in a goal-directed and future-proof way in companies. That’s what I had done for a living as a former IT strategy consultant. 

For my own career coaching business on the side, I can only dedicate a fraction of my time – because I prioritize care work for my little children. I face the same or similar challenges like all small business owners. So, I applied all my experience and knowledge to create my other video podcast #PostdocTransformation to streamline my social media marketing and to boost sales of my coaching, e-courses and affiliate products or services. 

I strategically capitalize on professional tools to scale my impact according to my vision of life.
