Developing effective Leadership Skills for Scientific Managers

Do you know these challenges?
- You are leading a team of entire teams, distributed over huge distances.
- You don't have formal, hierarchical authority over the teams, but you still have to get their buy-in, engagement and everybody's most effective work.
- Your teams communicate in multiple languages and come from a wide variety of cultures, posing even more communicational challenges.
- Most everyone in your team is well-trained and educated to be an expert in a specialised field, and you feel like you have to not just understand them, but that you also have to make them understand each other's needs and requirements.
- Although you have a scientific of highly specialised background yourself, it is impossible for you to understand every single facet of your projects.
- And yet, to get the respect your teams and to be able to measure your project's level of success, you have to understand your findings.
- You don't feel like your education has prepared you adequately to be a leader and that it seems to consist of many skills you now have to learn "on the job".
