Power Hour for Academics and Researchers

60 minutes, one to one$500.00 one-time

Want industry, boards and conference committees to find you before you have to apply?

Your work is peer reviewed, cited and respected inside your field, and invisible outside it. Industry, boards and media are looking for exactly your expertise, in language they can act on. In one hour we translate your research standing into a public position that attracts advisory, consulting and speaking work. I read your profile and answers before we meet.

Dr. Dereck Mush, MD, MBA
Positioning advisor for academics and researchers entering industry

I am a physician who moved from clinical work into HealthTech, advisory and the business side of medicine, and I rebuilt my own positioning to get there.

I now do that work for medical experts who have the credibility and none of the visibility: practising doctors, academics and HealthTech leaders who want advisory, board, speaking and consulting work, not follower counts.

What is included

01

Translating your research for people who buy

  • I review your profile, publications and public work before the call.
  • We turn your research area into a problem statement industry recognises and pays for.
  • We decide which work to lead with and which to keep in the background.
02

The rooms your standing should open

  • We name the target: scientific advisory board, industry consulting, conference keynote, HealthTech partnership, expert commentary.
  • We handle the institutional realities: conflicts, disclosure, what your department will and will not support.
  • We define how to be public without diluting academic credibility.
03

The blockers you bring

  • Send me your specific blockers ahead of the call and I prepare answers.
  • Pricing, visibility, employer or institutional conflicts, compliance nerves, time, imposter feelings: all fair game.
  • No influencer advice. Nothing that puts your licence, reputation or institution at risk.
04

A written 90 day plan

  • What to publish, where and how often, at a volume your real schedule can sustain.
  • Which two channels matter for your goal and which to ignore.
  • The first three outreach or inbound moves that create real conversations.
05

Ask me anything

  • The stage is yours. Rates, contracts, equity in HealthTech, saying no, transitioning out of full-time clinical or academic work.
  • You keep the recording and the written notes.

This is for you if

  • You are an academic, researcher or clinician-scientist with a strong body of work and little industry visibility.
  • You want advisory, consulting, speaking or HealthTech opportunities to find you.
  • You want to stay credible with peers while becoming legible to industry.

This is not for you if

  • You are not yet open to putting your name and expertise in public in any form.
  • You are looking for someone to run your accounts for you today. That is the done-for-you engagement, not this.

What you leave with

  • A translated positioning statement industry understands.
  • A profile that reads as an authority, not a publication list.
  • A written 90 day plan with named channels, cadence and first moves.
  • The recording and notes from the session.

If after the first fifteen minutes you feel this is not right for you, say so and I refund the session in full.

What happens after you book

01

Your slot is confirmed

Payment completes the booking. A calendar invite with a Google Meet link lands in your inbox immediately.

02

I prepare before we meet

I read your diagnostic answers, your profile and your public work, so the hour starts where you actually are.

03

You leave with a plan

Positioning, channels and first moves, written down, plus the recording and notes within 24 hours.

Before you book

How do I prepare?

You answer a short set of diagnostic questions when you book. I read them, your profile and any public work before we meet, so the hour starts with decisions instead of background.

What happens right after I pay?

Your slot is confirmed, a calendar invite with a Google Meet link is sent to your inbox, and I begin the review of your profile.

Can I reschedule?

Yes. Reply to your calendar invite and we move it. Life in medicine and HealthTech is unpredictable and that is fine.

Do I keep anything from the session?

You keep the recording, the written notes and the 90 day plan. Everything discussed stays confidential.

What if it is not right for me?

Say so in the first fifteen minutes and I refund the session in full, no explanation needed.

One hour. A decided position and a written plan.
