Workshops and Speaking

I facilitate several engaging workshops for both graduate students and faculty in higher education.

These 90-minute workshops may be held on Zoom or in person.

Starting from the initial consultation, I work closely with you to tailor the workshop content to your target group (e.g., graduate students in Asian studies or 1st year BIPOC faculty).

I curate and facilitate focused discussions to help provide clarity on the topics at hand as well as offer strategies that help illuminate the next steps for each participant.

I am also an experienced keynote speaker.

While most of my previous speaking engagements were during my time as a professor, I have been offering 2 signature keynotes since the launch of Rise with Clarity.

Testimonials
“Katherine presented to a group of junior scholars who are writing books in my coaching program. She was responsive to each workshop participant and was able to give personalized advice while also teaching principles of time management that were applicable to all. I would recommend her workshops to anyone who wants to support faculty in cultivating stronger time management and self-awareness in their professional lives.”
Jane Joann Jones, Founder of Up in Consulting.

We are so glad that we invited Dr. Katherine Lee to tell her story and give a highly personalized workshop to graduate students dedicated to re-imagining how their skills could be applied to a variety of values-based professions, including non-academic jobs. Her keynote lecture “Lessons in Music, Life, and Leaving Academia,” was searing, thought-provoking, and personal, and yet told in a way that was relevant to everyone in the room.

Her graduate workshop was affirming and well-structured, and I was very impressed with the way she held space for everyone in the workshop, no matter what stage they were in. She was also great at listening to students and answering their questions. And she even followed up by sharing a wealth of resources that she mentioned in the workshop.
