About the workshop:
Academic careers are demanding and building one that is both impactful and sustainable is a challenge for every early and mid-career researcher. This interactive workshop brings career progression and well-being together, rather than treating them as competing goals. Drawing on Professor Michelle Tuckey’s research and its real-world impact, the session will explore what helps people thrive in academia and what puts them at risk. Through a keynote presentation, a panel with ECU colleagues, an introduction to job crafting and recovery, plus a hands-on session exploring how evidence-based principles can be applied in practice, you’ll end the day with practical, strategies to shape your role, protect your well-being, and sustain your impact. Come ready to reflect, share, and co-design ideas you can use to support your well-being throughout your academic career.
