Navigating the research leadership package

You are encouraged to:

• Tailor your engagement with this package to meet your own needs
• Start with identifying your professional development needs
• Keep in mind that the greatest learning and developing is likely to take place when you apply what you are learning (70:20:10).
• Identify where you will get support with applying your knowledge and skills as a research leader. Peer support groups and mentoring can help here.
• Engage with the professional development opportunities that fit with your level of experience.
