Dara Wilson-Grant Email & Phone Number

As a career coach and licensed professional counselor, I specialize in working with individuals at a career impasse—helping them move forward with greater clarity and confidence and equipped with tools to either change course or advance. This comes from my 20+ years of coaching experience for a diverse clientele, including postdoctoral scholars and MBA candidates. In my current role as Director of Career & Professional Development at UNC-Chapel Hill's Office of Postdoctoral Affairs, I work with scholars in the STEM, humanities, and social sciences. My work as a freelance career management consultant includes the design and delivery of powerful, highly interactive programs that inspire, motivate, and transform individuals. For the past 15 years, I have been an invited speaker and trainer at leading universities, professional associations, government agencies, and non-profit institutions. My customized workshops on a broad range of topics leave participants better prepared to proactively manage their careers, navigate transitions, nurture their professional networks, and master job interviews and salary negotiations. In short, I help professionals establish and achieve meaningful career goals while teaching them to remain agile in the ever-changing world of work.Specialties: Career Coaching | Career Transitions | Working with highly specialized, early to mid-career professionals | Workshops & Presentations | Individual Development Plans | Networking | Mentoring Relationships | Interview Preparation | Resume Training | Salary Negotiations | Job Search Strategies
