text: Manage With Expertise
  You’re already an expert - you’ve worked in research collaborations, contributed to your field, and got your PhD.
  Now you’re looking to grow the impact of your expertise and manage or lead a team.
  But no one taught us how to do this stuff
  Academia wasn't a great place to learn how to manage - certainly for the kind of work you do now. Research collaboration timescales are measured in years - but now people are expecting your team to deliver in days and weeks. You need other skills than what you picked up in grad school, and to further develop some of the skills you already have.
  We have advanced management skills - just not the basics
  The thing is, though, working in those research collaborations taught us the advanced management skills we need to be great managers. We just need to learn the basics, so we can become good managers, first.

  Who am I?
  I’m Jonathan Dursi - I got my PhD in computational physics in 2004, and since then have lead and managed local, distributed, and national teams in technology fields in and out of academia. Now I talk and work with managers and leaders from around the world, helping them apply the skills they already have, and develop skills they need to manage with expertise and less stress.
