Danielle White is the founder and director of Periscope Programmes. She has been codesigning career transition programmes for over 20 years.
Working across the education system as a careers advisor, former academic and executive coach, clients have included heads of school at primary, secondary and university level; research staff; lecturers and PhDs at different stages.
What you’ll learn about in this episode:
- How networking has evolved and what approach is needed today
- Why you should be asking people “how did you get there?”
- How the landscape of career readiness resources offered by universities is changing for the better…
- …and why they’re important whether you end up having a career in academia or outside of academia
- What Periscope Programmes offers graduate students and how to get them at your university
Thank you, Danielle!
