Workshops – Katharine Stewart Consulting

In addition to individual coaching and application support services, I also offer workshops for groups of most sizes. Using the same strengths-based and action-oriented approaches that characterize my individual coaching, my workshops are designed so that participants will leave with a specific plan of action tailored to their unique career goals and with a renewed sense of purpose and optimism about their work.

If you’d like to talk with me more about an in-person or remote-facilitated workshop, please reach out and we’ll schedule a consultation to discuss your group's needs.

Let's Talk!

My workshops focus on giving participants practical information and skills that can be put to use immediately, and include supporting handouts and worksheets. Workshops are 90-120 minutes long, depending on the topic, and most can be delivered in person or via Zoom. These are my most popular programs:

Skills and Strategies to Build Trust in Mentoring Relationships
Grant Writing Skills: Strengthening Your Voice
Conflict Management for Faculty & Academic Leaders
Building a Strong Mentoring Network at any Career Stage
Reigniting Your Professional Purpose as a Faculty Member
Career Mapping for any Career Stage
Writing Strong CVs and Cover Letters for Academic Leadership Jobs

Katharine delivered a hybrid version (half of participants in-person and half online) of two workshops focusing on building successful mentoring networks and getting the most out of mentoring. Modules were very interactive and very well received by all participants. Dr. Stewart's passion, expertise and experience was evident as she connected the topics and tied in real world examples. I highly recommend these topics to other institutions as many junior investigators commented on needing more of such trainings.

Katharine's message to faculty is critical: we must embrace the fact that we’re whole humans rather than academic productivity machines. Her workshops empower attendees to integrate all aspects of self to attain new levels of success - and to thrive along the way!

When I think about the times I have spent working with Katharine, the word that comes to mind is empowerment. She provided a listening ear when it was needed most. More importantly though, she equipped me with the tools I needed to go out and be successful on my own while acting as my biggest cheerleader.
