The Scholarpreneur: A Valuable Resource for Anyone in Higher Education
If you’re in higher education, stop what you’re doing and listen to The Scholarpreneur podcast.
Scott Rank has done a great job of getting insightful and untraditional academics involved in his website and podcast. From former tenured professors who now own thriving businesses, to adjuncts who now have their own clients and classes for purchase, to online instructors who make six-figures and offer best-selling books, The Scholarpreneur covers it all.
If you’re an aspiring, full-time, or part-time instructor, I highly recommend spending some well-deserved time listening to the podcast. The resources and tips within each 30-40 minute interview are worth a second listen when you’re ready to take notes.
Scott asks the questions you want answered, and his guests provide invaluable advice and action steps that listeners can truly use to their advantage.
Not to mention, he was a gracious host when I was a guest on the show the other week. In my opinion, he’s doing exactly what it seems other academics are moving toward (or should be moving toward):
Being strategic about the way your use your degree and teaching experience.
If you’re in academia, take a note from TheScholarpreneur.com, and get started on your own business idea, products, and personal website.
