Surviving Your Dissertation - Find a Dissertation Coach
Did you know half of all graduate students
never get their degree because they never finish
their thesis or dissertation?
It's true, the research on graduate attrition (free report) shows that only 50% of students
complete their degree. Traditional books on surviving a doctoral
program focus on the writing aspect of completing a doctoral dissertation,
which has often proven ineffective. Completing the thesis or dissertation
component of any graduate program can be considerably difficult
and filled with many other obstacles, traditions and prerequisites
that involve more than just writing. Even the best writers struggle
to finish their degree.
There is a
considerable difference between an advisor and a dissertation
coach.
- An advisor is, first and foremost, an academician with considerable
responsibilities that do not involve you
- A dissertation
coach, on the other hand, is generally someone you pay to focus on you and
help you finish your degree by listening to all of your
concerns … academic or otherwise.
That's why I strongly advise students to find a “coach” to
help them organize and complete their project.
Dissertation Coaches Are Paid to Provide Support
Dissertation coaches focus on a
holistic – not strictly academic – approach to finishing
your degree. In person or on the phone, they can discuss
your project on an individual basis in absolute confidence, and
also serve as a sounding board for stress relief. They can offer
both emotional and academic support to help you complete important
tasks, as well as provide the tools you need to achieve your goals,
which enable you to accomplish more with less effort.
Coaches can help you get organized, and
regularly track your progress to ensure that you stay on top of
tasks. Their goal is to work in every possible way to help you
write your dissertation, finish it, and get it published.
“Group Coaching” Is Also Valuable
Through this model, once
coach provides counsel to several students over the phone (via a bridge line). Everyone
involved agrees to confidentiality, and the group is configured to guarantee
that no one in the group will be in competition with another. The advantage
of this approach is that you can accomplish more in less time, and can have
the opportunity to work with students in different disciplines from all over
the world. The group setting also provides built-in peer support.
