My 100th blog | Blog Entry by Vicky Lewis

Time for a reflective piece, since this is the 100th blog I’ve posted on the News and Views section of my website. My first one was in May 2014, so I’ve been using blogging as an outlet for over a decade now, with an output rate of roughly ten a year. It was interesting looking back over my blog archive. I stumbled across various things I’d forgotten I’d written about! So, how has my focus changed? What have I learned? Which were the most popular blogs? And w... View Page

My April antics | Blog Entry by Vicky Lewis

I’m coming to the end of a four-week break from consultancy. I decided earlier this year that I’d try to take April off work to deal with a specific personal project – and I told lots of people about my plan to reduce the chance of me backing out! The project is sorting the contents of dozens of boxes of letters, travel journals, unpublished (and some published) writings, photos, slides, sketches, significant documents and mementos that I brought back from my mum&rsqu...

10 years of consultancy | Blog Entry by Vicky Lewis

Well, it seems like no time at all since I wrote a blog marking the fifth anniversary of becoming an independent consultant. Suddenly, it’s my tenth anniversary. How did that happen? I feel the need to mark the ten-year point in some way and have been wondering what to say. Should I pass on top tips, lessons learned, or consider what advice I’d give myself if I was starting out today? In the end, it struck me on an early morning walk that what I really want to say is a huge tha... View Page

International strategy resources and publications | Blog Entry by Vicky Lewis

I’ve been aware for some time that my Vicky Lewis Consulting website was in need of a content update and reorganisation. It had developed somewhat organically over the (nearly) ten years that I’ve been an independent consultant. I have finally got around to giving it a much-needed content refresh. ... View Page

Reflections on 2022 | Blog Entry by Vicky Lewis

On 6 January, I wrote a blog hoping that 2022 would be a varied year with a range of consultancy projects, interspersed with writing and speaking opportunities. The last twelve months have certainly lived up to those expectations. It occurred to me that, unless I’ve worked with you directly, it may not be clear what kind of consultancy I get involved in, since my blogs tend to be more about issues I’ve been researching or topics that have piqued my interest. So, the first part ... View Page

2021: A year of two halves | Blog Entry by Vicky Lewis

When I became an independent consultant in 2013, I was happy to escape the confines of university life (and politics) and relished the opportunity of being able to fit in a modest amount of academic research alongside my consultancy work. The plan was that the latter would pay the bills, while the former would keep me sharp, relevant and credible. What I didn’t expect was what happened in 2021, which turned into a year of two halves. The first half was focused almost exclusively on rese... View Page

Five years of consultancy | Blog Entry by Vicky Lewis

It’s coming up for the fifth anniversary of setting up my business, Vicky Lewis Consulting, which specialises in international strategy development and marketing planning for higher education providers in the UK and beyond. I’ve had a lot of people ask me what I like best about working for myself. That’s easy to answer: the flexibility; the opportunity to make a difference quickly; the chance to get to the nub of an issue that a client has been grappling with internally (and... View Page
