Leadership skills are similar to research skills - we aren’t born knowing the best approaches but we can learn.

And just like learning how to be a researcher, growing as a leader involves making mistakes, listening to feedback, and improving over time.

The new academic year means new goals, and if you're leading a research group (or yourself!) then some of those goals may be leadership goals.

To celebrate a new year and new goals, @harvardpress.bsky.social is giving 20% off #LabworkToLeadership through Sept.

Few much-needed reminders: 1️⃣Strive to give your best, recognizing that your best can change daily, and 2️⃣ don’t forget kindness to yourself. It isn’t selfish; it’s essential for success in every aspect of life. #Kindness

The path to excellence is rarely a straight line; it comes with ups and downs, twists and turns. Let’s not fixate on the end goal so much that we may overlook valuable lessons along the way.

I often feel busy or overwhelmed and don't have the time I want for the things that bring me joy. Can you relate?

My latest blog post dives into the question we *often* ask when making decisions about our time and the question we *should* be asking instead.

Agreed! As we advance in our careers, the paths become more complex, and the need for guidance grows.

✅ Investing in mentorship relationships can bring transformative rewards to both your personal growth and professional development.

We all need mentors, and the further we go in our careers, the more mentors we need.

Whether it’s dealing with increasingly complex career situations, considering a career transition, or coping with a career ending, mentors can be an essential source of wisdom and support.
