Leadership for Researchers & Clinicians
Be as confident in your leadership as you are in your technical skills.
Mel Rosenthal has developed a specialist practice, working with Researchers, Clinicians,Academics, and Professional Staff from some of Australia’s leading research and teaching institutions, including WEHI, the University of Melbourne, the Peter Doherty Institute and the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre.
You’ve spent years acquiring the skills for discovery, diagnosis and treatment. Now, you’re expected to lead others in that pursuit.
Leadership feels like a loosely defined and significant expectation from those around you.
No one teaches you the rules; you’re just expected to know, often learning by experience and observation, adapting your approach in response.
It doesn’t have to be that way.
Coaching provides a confidential space to share your questions and learn new tools for addressing them. This is not generic leadership training. My practice is grounded in understanding your unique context. Through dialogue, we examine the situations that challenge you and, together, design strategies you can implement immediately.
Have you caught yourself wondering…
“How can I build my confidence and move beyond the feeling of imposter syndrome?”
“I’m struggling with how to balance my Clinical and Research commitments with my job as a leader”
“One of my RAs is rude and disrespectful. How can I get them to change their behaviour?”
“One of my Postdocs can’t seem to meet deadlines. How can I keep them focused and on track?”
Debate is normal when we’re talking about treatment plans, but we struggle to talk to each other about things like personality clashes. Can you help?”
“I’m thinking about my career path. I know where I want to get to, but I need some help figuring out how to get there”
If the answer is yes to any of the above, let’s talk.
