Retired Consulting Faculty
Now, I have a little farm and work with dissertation students, as well as teach Phenomenology Research Methodology.
I'm retired now, but when I was working full time, I managed 100 plus faculty across 4 countries and 13 learning centers. My day consisted of talking to faculty and students, providing workshops for the military community, approving schedules, paying faculty, making sure academic standards were upheld across all the campuses, and leading an talented education team of 13 full time faculty. I traveled three or four times a month across international boundaries.
Here's the first step for everyone
Don't be afraid to engage enthusiastically. Be the one who volunteers for the new experience. Get your hand up first. Try everything and find what you love. Then pursue it. The rest will come to you.
