Leadership Development

We help people develop the skills to lead their research enterprise and to “herd the lions” of collaborative teams. Our programs are purpose-built for the academy, evidence based, and focused on the skills for leading in research and scholarship.

All group programs meet for one hour over eight sessions. Individuals can experience the program in a one-on-one environment in eight sessions.

Early investigators

This eight-session program is available to individuals and can be coupled with the individual proposal development program.

Established investigators

"Jet LeBlanc is a brilliant coach. She is creative, insightful, and knowledgeable. She balanced perceptive (on her part) exercises that helped me see and understand the problems and roadblocks I was facing, with listening carefully to my responses and then incorporating those into our next session. Working with Jet made a difference in my professional journey, and I know that I will go back to her if I am struggling again."
