The
Scientific Leadership and Management Skills Course was developed in 2004-2005
as a collaboration between the UCSF Office of Postdoctoral Education, The Office of Career and Professional
Development, the Center for
Health Professions, and the J. David Gladstone
and Buck Institutes.
This
two-day, intensive course is designed to give new and future PI's the
awareness, skills and tools needed to become better leaders and managers
within a research unit. The course was modeled after the "Course in
Scientific Management" developed by the Howard
Hughes Medical Institute and the Burroughs
Wellcome Fund.
The next course
will be held in summer 2009.
This
course provides training in:
LEADERSHIP
AND MANAGEMENT IN SCIENCE
Includes instruction from the eminent specialist in this field, Dr. Ed O'Neil.
Dr. O'Neil has used his unique leadership development curriculum to train
scientists at Genentech, the NIH, and HHMI. Prior to the course
participants are asked to complete two on-line diagnostic tools that are used
to assess and improve leadership and communication skills. During the course,
small group work with Dr. O'Neil's team of leadership specialists provides
guidance for participants to realize tangible improvements in their skills.
CRITICAL
MANAGEMENT SKILLS FOR FUTURE AND NEW PI's
