We start with your context, challenges and ambitions for doctoral supervision.
Services
Research-based development for supervisors and institutions
From individual supervisor development to strategic advice for whole doctoral schools — every engagement is grounded in research and tailored to your context.
Service 01
Supervisor Development Programmes
Research-based professional development for doctoral supervisors at all career stages.
These programmes give supervisors a shared language and a robust framework for their practice. Combining current research with structured reflection and peer dialogue, they help participants understand the supervisory relationship, navigate its challenges and support doctoral students towards timely, high-quality completion.
Benefits
- Better supervision across the institution
- More reflective, intentional practice
- Higher quality and stronger completion in doctoral journeys
Ideal for
- New and early-career supervisors finding their footing
- Mid-career supervisors broadening their repertoire
- Doctoral schools building a consistent supervision culture
Formats
Multi-session programmes, intensive courses or blended formats — delivered on campus or online, in English or Scandinavian languages.
Service 02
Workshops for Experienced Supervisors
Advanced programmes designed specifically for highly experienced supervisors and professors.
Experienced supervisors are too often overlooked in development efforts. Yet they shape research cultures, mentor the next generation and carry the heaviest supervisory loads. These workshops offer a rare, intellectually serious space for senior academics to reconsider their practice — among peers, without judgement.
This is a particular strength of my work: I have devoted significant research and facilitation specifically to the development of experienced supervisors.

Keynotes & Conference Presentations
Inspiring and research-based talks on doctoral supervision, research cultures and academic development.
A keynote can set the tone for a conference, launch a strategic initiative or spark conversations that continue long after the event. I combine research insight with concrete examples and a reflective, engaging delivery that resonates with academic audiences.

Service 04
Consultancy for Doctoral Schools
Strategic advice on supervisor development, supervision quality and doctoral education.
Sometimes the question is bigger than a single course. How should a faculty develop its supervisors over time? How can supervision quality be monitored without bureaucracy? How do we build a research culture that supports both excellence and wellbeing? I work alongside leaders to think these questions through and design practical, research-informed ways forward.

- Designing a faculty-wide supervisor development strategy
- Reviewing and improving supervision quality frameworks
- Advising on doctoral education policy and culture
- Supporting leadership through periods of change
