from AIB Journals Podcast · host Academy of International Business
What does it really take to set yourself on the path toward a meaningful and impactful research career during your PhD? Through the lens of sensing, seizing, and transforming as mechanisms for navigating developmental opportunities, this episode explores how doctoral students, can move beyond core PhD training to build the skills, networks, and scholarly identity needed for impactful research careers. We unpack practical “scaffolding techniques,” from interdisciplinary exposure and international experiences to strategic co-authorship, peer review, and methodological training, that help bridge the gap between core academic training and real-world relevance. Join us as we discuss how the next generation of scholars can navigate institutional barriers to contribute more effectively to the global community.
