Show Notes

If you've been wondering what you should do during your sabbatical, you're in the right place. In this episode, I talk about the importance of creating a sabbatical plan that prioritizes your personal needs and goals, and I give you ideas for professional projects that go beyond traditional research outputs.

Here's a link to the Bruce Macfarlane article about the changing purpose of the academic sabbatical that I mention in the episode.
