Am I a Failure? Thoughts on Returning to Academia
Manage episode 443523463 series 3543649
In this episode, I explore the notion of perceived career setbacks, particularly regarding the decision to return to academia after a stint in industry. This topic often arises during coaching sessions where individuals express concerns about the job market and their career trajectories. We discuss recent trends, including market corrections and layoffs, that have impacted employment prospects in biotech. Through real-life stories, I highlight various career paths and the importance of adapting and expanding skill sets. Ultimately, the message is clear: there is no linear career path, and one's career decisions should be personal, aiming to gain new skills and build networks.
