Leadership opportunities are often limited at institutes. Folks who remain in leadership positions for extended periods contribute to the scarcity. I urge scientists in leadership roles to consider creating co-leadership or assistant leadership roles for folks on the rise.

I love my job, but it’s demanding and I KNOW it’s more demanding than it was 15 years ago. So much paperwork and red tape, higher grant and publication pressure, more expectations to give talks, be on committees, etc. Something has to give.
