My Academic & Professional Digital Plan
I recently redesigned my Academic and Professional Digital Identity Plan to make it clearer, more structured, and easier to follow. Instead of a simple list, I organised it into three main pillars — What, How, and Who — each supported by short descriptions. The use of colour-coding and clean categories helped me visualise better the Digital Plan.
WHAT — My Actions Online
I defined the concrete activities I want to carry out: posting and networking on LinkedIn, opening a professional Instagram, and eventually developing a website, blog or YouTube channel.
Content-wise, I will focus on circular economy, advanced materials, recycling innovation, sustainability, lab work, LCA, biotechnology, applied mycology, and entrepreneurship.
HOW — My Tools, Goals and Resources
To support these actions, I identified the key resources I rely on: LinkedIn, Instagram, Canva, my CV, and presentation tools.
My objectives are clear: increase visibility, expand my network, create scientific collaborations, and continue learning.
The main “costs” behind this plan are simply time, energy, and minimal website/blog hosting.
WHO — My Identity and My Audience
I highlighted my value proposition: strong technical skills (materials science, circular economy, LCA), passion for sustainability, and adaptable soft skills like communication, public speaking and problem-solving.
I defined my collaborators (professors, colleagues, communication experts, specialized YouTube channels) and target groups (companies, research centres, EU organisations, startup incubators, and the general public for science communication).
My Strategy: Two Main Goals
This structured plan supports two complementary objectives:
- Professional Visibility & Career Growth
Positioning myself so companies, research centres and organisations can easily understand my profile, discover my work, and identify me as a potential collaborator or employee in the sustainability-related fields that motivate me. - Science Communication & Content Creation
Building, over time, a space where I can share knowledge, experiments, materials science insights and circular economy perspectives with a wider audience — once I have the time to fully invest in consistent content creation.
Let me know what you think, and if you see any similarities with your own plans!
