This conversation covers: Why research deserves to be seen and cited How ProQuest expands the reach of your work The connection between leadership and academic contribution Why so many graduate students struggle with burnout and isolation How doctoral research can become books, speaking opportunities, consulting, coaching, and curriculum development Whether your work focuses on leadership, organizational development, experiential learning, succession planning, or another field entirely, this episode is a reminder that your research matters long after the defense is over.
