Episode 12. Creating connections, shaping futures: building professional networks as an education-focused academic with Dr Rachael Lamb

In this episode, we are joined by Dr Rachael Lamb from the University of Bristol Business School to discuss how professional networks can shape an education-focused academic career.The conversation explores Rachael’s journey from industry into academia and reflects on the challenges of changing careers mid-life, learning how universities work, and building confidence in a new professional environment. Along the way, we discuss how networking can support career development, leadership, collaboration, and a stronger sense of academic identity. A central theme of the episode is that networking does not have to be performative or transactional. Rachel shares a more thoughtful and purposeful approach, showing how curiosity, reciprocity, and small everyday conversations can open up meaningful opportunities, create connections across the university, and help education-focused academics build influence and support over time.

Episode 11. Real-World Experience in the Classroom: What Industry Teaches Academia with Dr Lloyd Fletcher

In this episode, we are joined by Dr Lloyd Fletcher, Associate Professor in Management at the University of Bristol Business School, to explore how industry experience can shape an education-focused academic career. The conversation traces Lloyd’s journey from physics and engineering, through telecommunications and consultancy, to academia. The episode highlights how real-life stories, examples, and lived experience make learning more meaningful and bridge the gap between theory and practice. The conversation also challenges the idea of linear career planning, showing how impactful academic careers can emerge through curiosity, opportunity, and reflection rather than rigid strategy.

Episode 10. Why failure matters: Rethinking innovation in education-focused academia with Dr Chahna Gonsalves

In this episode, we are joined by Dr Chahna Gonsalves, Senior Lecturer in Marketing (Education) at King’s Business School, to explore how innovation, failure and unlearning shape education-focused academic careers.   The conversation traces Chahna’s journey into the education-focused pathway, from initially applying for research-track roles to discovering a strong commitment to teaching, pedagogical development and evidence-based education. We discuss the realities of working in research-intensive environments, including the challenges of navigating student engagement, curriculum design and institutional expectations.   A central theme of the episode is the role of failure in driving pedagogical innovation. Drawing on her book chapter in the How to Become an Education-Focused Academic book, Chahna reflects on the importance of creating space for experimentation, embracing uncertainty, and using evidence to inform teaching practices. The discussion also highlights the need for supportive institutional cultures that enable educators to take pedagogical risks without fear of reputational consequences.

Episode 9. Making the Most of Leadership Roles in an Education-Focused Career with Prof.Wayne Holland

In this episode, we are joined by Professor Wayne Holland, Professor of Management Education and School Education Director at the University of Bristol Business School, to discuss how leadership roles can shape an education-focused academic career. The conversation explores Wayne’s journey from starting on a traditional academic pathway (research and education) in the early 1990s to becoming the first education-focused professor in Bristol Business School. Along the way, we discuss how he chose to prioritise teaching and educational leadership, and how the sector has gradually evolved to recognise education-focused career pathways. A central theme of the episode is the role of leadership in education-focused careers. Wayne argues that leadership roles should not be seen as admin, but as a powerful way to influence educational practice, shape institutional culture, and amplify impact beyond the classroom.

Episode 8: A Different Kind of North: Developing an education-focused academic portfolio with intention with Prof. Christine Rivers and Assoc. Prof. Anna Holland

In this episode, we are joined by Professor Christine Rivers and Associate Professor Anna Holland from the University of Surrey to discuss how intention, strategy, and courage can shape an education-focused academic career.   The conversation explores their very different journeys into higher education, from industry, apprenticeships, and further education to academic leadership and professorship. Along the way, we discuss navigating academic systems, building confidence, finding mentors, and recognising the value of diverse career paths.   A central theme of the episode is developing an academic portfolio with intention. Christine and Anna share their “compass” approach to career development and offer a powerful reminder: just because something does not yet exist does not mean you cannot build it. For education-focused academics, being brave, trusting yourself, and creating opportunities, sometimes with the help of trusted collaborators, can be part of shaping your own path in academia.   Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not represent the positions of their universities or employers.
