Practical workshops designed for science professionals – to help you communicate your value, clarify your direction, and take confident steps forward.

Maria is an exceptional specialist in building a professional narrative that resonates beyond the traditional academic sphere. Her "Building Personal Brand" workshop helped me see the qualifications from my PhD and Postdoc through a much broader lens. She provided me with the tools to translate my research expertise into a language of transferable skills that is valuable whether communicating with funders or industry partners. Maria is a supportive listener and a sharp analyst - I highly recommend her to any researcher looking to better understand their professional value in today's landscape!

Maria's workshop gave me a fresh way to think about my professional value. I learned to better articulate what I bring through the problems I solve and the situations where my contribution and skills matter most. That kind of reframing sounds simple, but it opened up a completely different way of seeing my own trajectory. I was also pleasantly surprised by the peer feedback. Hearing how others perceived my value, often in ways I hadn't considered, was both humbling and clarifying. If you're a scientist who knows your work matters but wants sharper language for it, Maria's workshop is worth your time.

What I appreciated the most is how discussing with others helped me to know other peoples perspective about myself and it is good to know that as I had not thought about it by myself. It helped me to appreciate the talents that I have and my skills and to focus on my strengths which is a valuable asset while looking for my next career move.

The course helped me to think of what I do best and how I can capitalise on it. My key takeaway is that I have valuable skills that set me apart from others, and I feel more confident overall. I especially appreciated Maria's comments and feedback on what we were saying.

I particularly appreciated the examples and ideas on how to formulate my statements and strategies to find out my personal value. I realized that "selling" myself has to be intentional. It has to be targeted and thought through. I now have more resources on how to identify what makes me different/unique and articulate my value. Thank you for the time and work invested in this training!
