The studENT - Seven Reminders to Keep You Motivated During Ph.D.

(posted on behalf of @Asif Kanan) One of the very worst uses of time is to do something very well that need not be done at all. ~ Brian Tracy Have you ever felt like a phoenix rising from the ashes, only to be consumed by flames again? That's the Ph.D. experience in a nutshell. A Ph.D. is a journey of profound discovery and crushing self-doubt, of exhilarating breakthroughs and mind-numbing setbacks. It's where you're simultaneously the most knowledgeable person in your niche and the most clueless student in the room. But how do we remain motivated in times of academic crisis? Personally, I give ...

Research Highlights—Why being a White man increases chances of entrepreneurial success?

(posted on behalf of @Julian Riano ) A key stage in entrepreneurial processes is the pitch, where a business idea is presented to friends, family, and relevant others to gain feedback shaping the idea; however, not every piece of feedback is as useful or acceptable as it could be. Initial assessors of business ideas, known as relevant feedback providers (e.g., business owners, professors, community leaders, etc.), play a vital role in encouraging/thwarting idea elaboration and further development during pitches. Reasons for the significance in impact stem not only from their role but also due to other more innate characteristics such as race and gender ...

The studENT - Dealing with the Cycle of Unproductivity

Dealing with the Cycle of Unproductivity (posted on behalf of @Asif Kanan) The life of a Ph.D. student is often described as a marathon of intellectual challenges, self-discovery, and persistence. With long to-do lists, summer research papers, comprehensive exams, proposal defenses, job market applications, dissertations, and countless other demands, it can feel like every mountain climbed reveals another looming ahead. While the purpose and drive to accomplish these tasks may be strong, maintaining motivation throughout this arduous journey can be incredibly challenging. There are days—sometimes weeks—when getting out of bed feels impossible, and productivity ...

The studENT - The Product of Your Ph.D. Is ‘You’: Reflections from The Job-Market Year

The Product of Your Ph.D. Is ‘You’: Reflections from The Job-Market Year (posted on behalf of Asif Kanan) It’s only now, amid my Job Market Year, that the saying "the product of your Ph.D. is you " has started to feel real. This phase is both challenging and rewarding, a time when years of growth are tested in the academic marketplace. If we think of the Ph.D. journey as a process of development, this year is when we put the “finished product”—ourselves—out there. The Ph.D. Journey: A Product Development Phase We often hear the Ph.D. journey described as a marathon rather than a sprint, but it’s more than just a long race. It’s a deeply layered ...

Research Highlights—Why some entrepreneurs choose to remain hidden?

By Josh Wei-Jun Hsueh posted 10-30-2024

Research Highlights—Why some entrepreneurs choose to remain hidden? (posted on behalf of @Julian Riano ) We often assume (and teach) that entrepreneurs need maximum visibility. Struggling startups are encouraged to promote themselves widely because anyone could become a customer, investor, or stakeholder capable of catalyzing their business. So, why might some entrepreneurs choose to remain hidden? In their recent study, Robert Nason, Siddharth Vedula, Joel Bothello, Sophie Bacq, and Andrew Charman challenge our latent assumption by exploring entrepreneurs in the informal economy who deliberately hide rather than seek visibility. Their research, ...

The studENT - Everything I’ve learned from doing a PhD

Everything I’ve learned from doing a PhD (posted on behalf of @Suzana Varga ) As I am slowly approaching the closure of this academic chapter representing my doctoral studies, I have been catching myself in reflection on what the takeaways I have been forming from the past six years of my life are. I’ve spent those years deeply devoted to my academic path, I gave it quite literally everything, all of myself until the very last drop of my energy. What I’ve learned from doing a PhD moves way beyond the technicalities of conducting academic research. The purpose and ultimate expected outcome of obtaining a doctoral degree ...

Research Highlights—What is social entrepreneurship?

By Josh Wei-Jun Hsueh posted 06-27-2024

(posted on behalf of @Julian Riano ) Those brave enough to answer this question might bring forward concepts such as social capital, social innovation, social objectives, value creation and market requirements. However, previous studies on social entrepreneurship (SE) have argued it is ‘an essentially contested concept’, ‘it lacks construct legitimacy and undefined theoretical content and boundaries’, ‘the field has not been completely probed, and there exists some unexplored research themes for future research’, whilst others recognised ‘SE research transcends the foci on either detached structures or individuals, and that research in SE is often led ...

The studENT - Notes from job market

(posted on behalf of @Suzana Varga ) With the new academic hiring cycle around the corner, I thought it would be helpful to reflect on well-being-related themes that can become prominent in times when many of us may be reaching the pressure point known as the job market . While my job market experience was interrupted in the midst of it by an extended leave due to burnout, I do think that such an “extreme case” offered opportunities for important lessons to derive. I hope to be able to depict these lessons in a way that can support my peers’ job market journey and serve as a reminder about the importance of taking care of ourselves at all times, particularly ...

(posted on behalf of @Suzana Varga) For this month’s studENT blog, I wanted to capture and convey voices of the PhD community (instead of just mine). Hence, I have organized a couple of panel discussions where fellow PhD candidates from different parts of the world and varying institutions shared their views, challenges, and ways of coping with well-being related themes. The brave colleagues who positively responded to my invitation are all ambitious young scholars who are just about to wrap up their PhD trajectories. We had wonderfully refreshing open conversations where we discussed important questions around mental health and ways of coping with the ...

I hope these words can inspire others to find their mission and purpose. My first startup: I always proudly tell my students the story my first entrepreneurial endeavor to show them that failure is part of the entrepreneur’s journey. In 1991 I was invited by a very close friend of mine to open a fashion boutique in Sao Paulo, Brazil. It was a side hustle as none of us were ready to quit jobs yet. I was 28, but still very naïve and ...

(posted on behalf of @Seham Ghalwash ) Jeff York’s article, titled " Exploring Environmental Entrepreneurship: Identity Coupling, Venture Goals, and Stakeholder Incentives ," delves into the world of sustainable entrepreneurship, and its significance lies in its contributions to two key areas of research. At the heart of this narrative, the paper uncovers the world of sustainable entrepreneurship, investigating why some thrive while others stumble in environmental entrepreneurship. It classifies these eco-entrepreneurs into two distinct categories. The first group is propelled by business acumen, accommodating diverse stakeholders regardless of their ...
