Storytelling is not just a tool for entertainment; it is a powerful medium for communicating complex ideas in a relatable and impactful manner. In this episode of Beyond the Thesis with Papa PhD, Dr. Leslie Berntsen highlights why leveraging science communication is important, as a PhD, and how embedding your results within personal stories makes science more accessible and engaging to the general public. Adding this human touch to how we talk about science allows us to bridge the gap between the scientific community and non-academic audiences. Dr. Leslie Berntsen is a social scientist, once-and-former college professor, and the current Director of Education and Research at The Story Collider. She specializes in inclusive pedagogy, teaching social issues, and popular science communication and is the recipient of four national teaching awards from the Society for the Teaching of Psychology and the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues over a seven year period. (She tries to remain as chill about this as a person possibly can.) Leslie’s writing has been featured in The Chronicle of Higher Education, Science, and The Huffington Post, and you can also find the earliest drafts of her forthcoming op-eds on Twitter – which she will stubbornly continue to use until the very last server crashes. Her high school debate team once named her “Most Likely to Color-Code Her Plans to Grassroots Resistance” and she has – with no effort required – been living up to it ever since. What we covered in the interview: The Human Side of Science: Through her work with Story Collider, Leslie aims to highlight the human side of science by tying it to personal experiences and real-life scenarios.Career Development through Storytelling: Leslie sheds light on the value of introspection and self-awareness in developing character and career skills. Whether it is for job interviews, academic presentations, or grant applications, storytelling can be a powerful arrow in a young researcher's quiver.Story Fellows Programs: Story Collider fosters initiatives that encourage university students to use storytelling for public scholarship and science communication. These programs involve workshops where participants craft and present their science-related stories on stage.🔗See the resources section below for links!

Welcome to this insightful episode of Beyond the Thesis With Papa PhD, where we delve deep into the complexities of embracing life as a PhD and the broader challenges faced by those in academia, through the prism of our guest's research on high-performing professionals from the gig economy. In this episode I'm joined once again by the Professor Sue Ashford from the University of Michigan, whose prolific research on self-leadership and personal growth sheds light on the unique pressures and opportunities faced by independent workers. Our discussion pivots around the emotional and psychological facets of working outside traditional organizational frameworks—themes that resonate profoundly with both gig workers and academics. Sue Ashford is the Michael and Susan Jandernoa Professor in the Management and Organizations group at the University of Michigan, Stephen M. Ross School of Business. She has previously taught at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College and received her MS and Ph.D. degrees from Northwestern University.Sue’s passion is using her teaching and research to help people to be maximally effective in their work lives, with an emphasis on self-leadership, proactivity, personal growth, and leadership and its development. Her teaching at the Ross School currently focuses on the executive MBA program (negotiation) and several short-term executive education programs (leadership, change, growth). She also teaches regularly in the Leading Women Executives program of the Corporate Leadership Center and for various companies.Sue is an award-winning scholar, having published papers in the fields’ best journals in the areas of leadership development and leader effectiveness, middle management voice and issue selling, job insecurity, and individual proactivity (e.g., self-management and feedback seeking). Her research has been summarized as advice for managers in the Harvard Business Review, the Harvard Business Review blog, New York Magazine and The Conversation. Sue is a Fellow of the Academy of Management, recognizing the top 10% of scholars worldwide. She was awarded the prestigious Career Achievement Award for Distinguished Scholarly Contributions to Management by the Academy of Management in 2017 and the OB Division Lifetime Achievement Award in 2020. Her recent book, The Power of Flexing: How to Use Small Daily Experiments to Create a Life-Changing Growth (Harper Collins), brings together all of her research and teaching over the years into one place to help people grow their personal and interpersonal effectiveness – to be both successful in today’s world and the person they most want to be.In our conversation, Sue emphasizes the critical importance of maintaining a sense of self-value and the dangers of neglecting self-care, which can lead to burnout and exhaustion. Drawing on her substantial work, including the article "Agony and Ecstasy in the Gig Economy," we explore the concept of 'holding environments' and the significance of creating supportive networks that anchor one’s professional life. Whether you're navigating the solitary waters of a PhD or building your post-PhD career, this episode offers valuable perspectives on building resilience and fostering meaningful connections to thrive in increasingly personalized work landscapes. Join us as we chart these intricate terrains on Beyond the Thesis With Papa PhD! What we covered in the interview: Purpose and Self-Value – Understand your WHY to drive productivity and navigate the academic landscape effectively.Intentional Connection – Cultivate relationships that offer support, feedback, and a sense of community.

Nous ne sommes pas tous faits pareils. Ce qui nous motive, ce qui nous passionne, nos valeurs, nos priorités dans la vie, tous ces traits font de nous qui nous sommes, avec notre style particulier, avec nos besoins particuliers, avec nos tocs particuliers. Cette semaine sur Au-delà de la thèse avec Papa PhD, je t'apporte un autre trésor de la voûte – ma conversation avec Mrim Boutla, où l'on trace des liens entre la neuroplasticité, les différentes approches à l’expérience du doctorat, et les stratégies gagnantes d’exploration de carrière et de recherche d’emploi après le doctorat. Mrim Boutla est une docteure en neuroplasticité devenu coach de carrière. À l'Université de Brown et à la Kelley School of Business (Université de l'Indiana), Mrim a encadré avec succès des centaines de diplômés en arts, des MPA, des MBA et des docteurs pour qu’ils obtiennent des emplois leur permettant de maximiser leur impact et leurs revenus. En tant qu'entrepreneure social, Mrim a reçu le prix AshokaU/Cordes 2013 pour avoir lancé More Than Money Careers en partenariat avec le Dr Mark Albion (professeur fondateur de Net Impact). Le logiciel MTMCareers a permis à plus de 5 000 diplômés de se familiariser, de réseauter et d'être embauchés pour des stages et des emplois qui allient compensations financières et impact social et gestion de l'environnement. Mrim fait office de mentor pour les startups par le biais de I-Corps, HeraHub, NETVA et AccelerateDC. Mi-Suisse et mi-Marocaine, Mrim a été la première de sa famille à suivre des études au-delà de la 9e année. Elle a commencé son parcours aux États-Unis en tant qu'étudiante F-1 et est devenue citoyenne américaine en 2015. Mrim a obtenu une licence/maîtrise en psychologie à l'Université Catholique de Louvain, en Belgique, une maîtrise et un doctorat en sciences cérébrales et cognitives à l'Université de Rochester, et a effectué son stage postdoctoral en neuroplasticité à l'université de Brown. Au-delà du travail, Mrim aime les voyages à l’international et regarder les matchs de la NBA avec sa fille. Ce que tu apprendras dans cet épisode : L'intérêt de bâtir ta mosaïque de passions durant ton doctorat ou au moment où tu commences à explorer tes choix de carrières possiblesChoisir un domaine d'activité professionnelle, c'est shoisir une tribu qui reflète tes valeurs et tes passionsLe chemin vers ton emploi de rêve n'est pas une ligne droite, mais un ensemble de moments souvent inattendus tissés ensemble par tes choix à chacun d'entre euxLes quatre piliers du transfert de compétences développées au doctoratLes perles de sagesse de Mrim:« Je trouve que vraiment qu'on est des êtres très, très sociaux et, donc, trouver ta tribu de personnes comme Papa PhD ou autre, ça te donne un tramplin vers l'espoir, ça te donne un tramplin vers le chapitre prochain. Et c'est ça, en fait qui me donne ma motivation à moi quand je vois dans les yeux ou dans la posture des gens que d'un coup, d'un seul, ils trouvent "Ah, oui! C'est ça dont j'ai besoin pour bouger le Schmilblick un petit peu plus." Et c'est très individuel, mais dans les articles LinkedIn que je partage, je donne beaucoup de ces ressources pour qu'ils puissent un petit peu regarder qu'est-ce qu'il y a d'autre et qu'est qu'il y a ailleurs. »« J'ai découvert autour de moi qu'il y a des gens qui sont fascinés d'accumuler données pour découvrir et comprendre. Et ça, c'est vraiment les académiques. Mais moi, j'étais fascinée de découvrir pour comprendre, mais ma compréhension devait donner place à de l'action, à du changement, à traduire cette découverte dans quelque chose de tangible qui va aider les gens à se comprendre, à comprendre les autres, et puis à bâtir ces ponts de compréhension mutuelle et de résolution de conflits. Et je sais que si je reste dans le domaine académique je peux faire du beau boulot, mais je serai 80 % de mon temps devant MATLAB à analyser des images d'IRM. Et je déteste ça.
