(6/6) The future of work is collaborative, and by bringing the best of both worlds together, we can build stronger, more innovative teams. Let’s continue this conversation and push for greater synergy between academia and industry!

(5/6) There are no straightforward answers to these questions, but one thing is clear. Academia and industry aren't opposing forces; they are complementary journeys. It's time to reframe the narrative and embrace the potential at their intersection.

(4/6) But there are still many questions to address:

How to close the gap between academia & industry?

How to provide academics with PM training for their current academia & potential industry jobs?

How to help industries recognize the value of PhD & postdoc experience in project management?

(3/6) It also became clear to me that the industry would gain significantly by hiring academics into PM roles. With our strengths in documentation, communication, and a structured, time-bound vision, we are uniquely equipped to navigate dynamic work environments.

(2/6) I discovered that the soft skills required, the artifacts produced, and the tools used are similar in both sectors. However, a key takeaway was realizing how much academia can benefit from industry PM training, especially in applying agile methodologies in the lab and during fieldwork.

Absolutely! 😍😍😍😍

This certainly increases the probability of fossilization. However, the remains will eventually need to be buried for fossilization to occur, though this does not necessarily have to happen rapidly at death. The carcass can remain relatively stable for weeks without burial.

I am happy you liked it. If you have any questions or would like to know more, please feel free to drop me a message :)
