How it works
The Wheel of PhD Life is an assessment tool I created, inspired by the traditional Wheel of Life used in coaching. I have aligned it with my S.M.A.R.T.P.h.D™ coaching framework to evaluate the 8 key areas to influence PhD success.
You will answer 24 questions, and in less than 5 minutes, you’ll uncover your strengths and weaknesses, identifying areas to focus on for a more successful, productive, and enjoyable PhD journey.
After completing the assessment, you’ll receive a personalised report with actionable tips you can apply Today, so you can thrive in the following areas:
Self-care
