Leadership development consultations

Support for creating a leadership development plan for research and academic staff at the University of Edinburgh

What are leadership development consultations?

Leadership development consultations are short 30-minute online conversations with an Academic Developer to create a unique training and development plan for research leadership to suit your needs. 

The consultations will:

  • help you identify what your key training and development needs are for research leadership;
  • make suggestions for what support, guidance or training might be relevant to your specific needs;
  • provide a follow up email with a list of resources, training and development opportunities identified;
  • support you to create a unique development plan for research leadership.

The consultations will not:

  • provide advice on specific funding, funding applications or promotions;

Who is it for?

The consultations are available to current University of Edinburgh research leaders and Principal Investigators, or those who are about to step into a research leadership role for the first time. External researchers are not eligible.
