Hey friends, in this special episode, I review the book "Labwork to Leadership: a concise guide to thriving in the science job you weren't trained for". Scientists receive sufficient training to develop lines of investigation, but little to no training on leading the very people who make this effort possible. In this easy read, Jen offers first-hand insight into self-development, leading others, and creating future leaders.
