In this solo episode, I first explain what PhD advisory and dissertation committees are. Then, I share what factors impacted my decision-making process as I identified who to ask to serve on my committees. I discuss the importance of surrounding yourself with both knowledgeable and supportive mentors as you form these committees. I also give three key things to think about when forming your own dissertation committee, based on my experiences. To find the full show notes, visit www.aboutfromandwith.com.
