Aranee Manoharan, Ph.D. is the Senior Associate Director for Careers and Employability at King's College London. In addition, she serves in leadership roles for AGCAS, Advance HE, and others. Aranee is only the second guest of the Career Services Leadership podcast from outside the United States and the first from Europe!
I first had the opportunity to meet Aranee at the Global Career Services Summit in Washington, D.C. when we were matched together for the gift exchange. Later, I had the opportunity to hear her present on inclusive approaches to employability during one of the interactive sessions, which was amazing and is one of her areas of expertise.
In this episode, we discuss pragmatic approach to leadership, how she relates her Ph.D. research on ethnic conflict to her work in career services, the U.K.'s approach to assessing "value for money" of a college degree, what she learned going from leading a small team to a nearly 50-person team, and so much more!
