Dr Connor Richardson - Academic Promotions: A Tale of Two Tries (Part 2)

Dr Connor Richardson - Academic Promotions: A Tale of Two Tries (Part 2)

Dr Connor Richardson narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.

In his blog post "Academic Promotions: A Tale of Two Tries - Part 2," Connor is back sharing his experiences and insights from two rounds of applying for academic promotion. Highlighting the importance of mindset, Connor contrasts his initial, cautious approach with a more confident, assertive strategy in his second attempt. He emphasises the need to focus on one's unique selling points, be direct and self-assured in applications, and adapt to feedback. Through his journey, he underscores the significance of presenting oneself as indispensable and confidently highlighting achievements, even if it feels uncomfortable.
