Coach and facilitator for research environments- helping research leaders thrive, keep joy in research and create empowering research culture.
Do you have a Head of Department who is trying to protect your research time as a new research leader? I guess this can be hard to do as a head of department. How much should new research leaders be protected from the madness of the academic turmoil? Most will tell you that their work allocation is an alternative reality but certainly not the one they experience each day. Being supported by their line managers is not something you hear often from early career academics. It was great to hear from Thushan de Silva that his head department had really encouraged him to have more protected research time when he started as a Clinical Academic, giving him the space to build his research niche and collaboration, and settling in his role. That early stage in building a research portfolio and team is so precious. Getting new research leaders to have the best chance to be successful. If you are managing early career academics and research fellows, what are you doing to help them thrive in setting up their research group?
