project management skills project management tools writing tasks publication pipeline time management discernment workflows

Are you stuck in a cycle of trying out new project management toolsTrello, Asana, Notiononly to abandon them weeks later? You're not alone. No tool will save your writing or publication pipeline if you haven't first developed core project management skills.

In this episode, I explain why building project management skills must come before adopting a project management tool. If you're feeling overwhelmed with your writing tasks, due dates, or collaborative projects, its not because you havent found the right appits because foundational skills like discernment and time management arent fully developed yet. Before you invest energy (and money) in the latest software, you need clarity on how you work and how to support your writing with solid workflows.

Tune in to learn how to build the academic project management skills that will advance your writing and publication projects, allowing you to select a project management tool that works with you, not against you.

268: [Project Management Series] How To Approach Your Writing Like A Project Manager (Re-Release EP 3)

Hosts

project management academic writing writing goals time management writing systems stress management

Welcome to a brand-new series on Academic Writing Amplified - project management for academic writing! 

Over the next few episodes, I’ll guide you through how to treat your writing like the complex, ongoing project it truly is. I’ll show you how to build systems that help you manage multiple due dates, balance competing responsibilities, and stay in control of your writing pipeline—without burning out or constantly reinventing the wheel.

In this first segment, I’m laying the foundation. I walk you through the two most important building blocks of academic writing project management:

  1. Learning the core skills—like breaking big writing goals into manageable tasks and estimating how long those tasks take.

  2. Creating a system that works—including templates, scheduling practices, and simple routines to keep your projects moving, even when your calendar is packed.

If you’ve ever felt like your writing is always on the back burner or you're constantly busy but never finishing anything, this episode is for you. Start the series now and learn how to take control of your writing with less stress, more structure, and real progress

community chaos isolation overwhelm writing publishing vulnerability sustainable success academic women non-binary scholars

If academia has ever made you feel isolated, overwhelmed, or like you are the only one struggling to "figure it all out," you're not alone.

In this episode, I dive into the deep-rooted loneliness that many academics experience, particularly around writing and publishing. With years of experience coaching academic women and non-binary scholars, I explore how vulnerability and community are essential for sustainable success in academia.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re drowning in writing due dates, unsure how to unclog your publication pipeline, or just tired of doing it all alone, this episode is your invitation to reimagine what’s possible when scholars come together. Community is closer than you think. Tune in to discover how building connections in academia is essential for creating the career you want.

Bonus: "My Situation Is Unique But Our Problems Are The Same”: Finding Community In Navigate

Hosts

Guests
Katelyn Carr
Keywords
academic writing community assistant professor research publishing eating behaviors motivation

Katelyn joined Navigate under unusual circumstances: she was trying to figure out the transition into her assistant professor role, after having been a doctoral student and a full-time researcher at the same institution. She wanted support figuring out her academic mission (especially how it would be different from her advisor’s and P.I.’s), and how she could publish her backlog of papers while carving out her own research area. Within the supportive Navigate group, she found that. Though her circumstances were different, her core problems were the same as the other in her cohort: clarity of mission, holding boundaries, and solving writing problems versus tasks.

 

More about Katelyn:

Katelyn Carr is an Assistant Professor at the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, University at Buffalo. She studies eating behaviors and motivation in parents and children.
