Leadership is a fundamental part of every physician’s role—not just those with formal titles. Physicians lead daily by influencing patients, teams, and systems to achieve better outcomes. Despite this, leadership training is rarely emphasized in medical education. All Physicians Lead advocates for formal leadership development throughout a doctor’s career, starting from medical school, using a model that progresses from self-leadership to leading individuals, teams, and organizations. Authored by a neurosurgeon and healthcare leader, the book argues that improved physician leadership enhances team performance, patient satisfaction, and health outcomes, calling for leadership to be recognized as a core medical competency.

A practical guide to leading a lab—and mastering the leadership skills no one teaches you.
As a graduate student and postdoc, chemist Jen Heemstra learned how to design experiments, publish papers, and present her research. But it wasn’t until conflict erupted in her own lab, early in her career as a principal investigator, that she realized what she hadn’t been taught: how to lead.
Labwork to Leadership is the guide every PI needs but few are given. Blending lessons from her own experience—mistakes included—with insights from psychology and business, Heemstra lays out the unspoken curriculum of scientific leadership. She covers everything from building a supportive, inclusive lab culture to setting meaningful goals, navigating conflict, and giving feedback that actually helps.
With honesty, warmth, and a sharp understanding of life at the bench, Labwork to Leadership fills a critical gap in scientific training. It shows how better leadership doesn’t just improve lab morale and productivity—it makes science more creative, collaborative, and fulfilling.
