D8 - Exploring research leadership: A new PI programme

Day 2 at 13:45 - Following on from the work of the two previous conferences looking at the career aspirations and development needs of researcher developers, mapping was undertaken in an AUA supported project and a task landscape was identified for researcher developers. Leadership was highlighted as an important development need for researcher developers as a result of this mapping.

Building upon the model and approach developed for the new Vitae Leadership programme for PIs, participants were able to engage in a reflection on their own leadership capabilities whilst gaining insight into the new programme. Strand - Research staff.
