Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Building Capacity 2: Alternative research pathways
Q: What's your advice to those who perhaps don't feel they have the right network around them at the moment to make that first step in building those connections?
Priyen advises reaching out to people in the relevant field even if they are not the right fit, because they may connect the trainee with someone else. He says persistence and asking directly for opportunities helped him find his PhD supervisor.
Building Capacity 2: Alternative research pathways
Q: How do you bridge that gap for those who think research happens elsewhere or does not feel accessible, but are committed to improving care for families?
Sharna recommends knocking on doors, contacting people who present relevant work, speaking with supervisors and peers, and looking for advertised out-of-programme opportunities. She says early research may require time outside work, but connections can help trainees find a route into projects.
Leading the Way 14: Leading through improvement, with Dr Yincent Tse
Q: What practical steps can listeners take to improve leadership in their own teams?
Start with small quality improvement projects, map out processes, involve the team, and measure impact. Build a culture of psychological safety where colleagues feel able to speak up, and pursue education opportunities that are pediatrics-specific to address the unique challenges of child health.
Leading the Way 14: Leading through improvement, with Dr Yincent Tse
Q: Some people worry that saying yes to every opportunity may lead to overload. How do you balance taking on new roles with maintaining focus and energy?
The approach is to join roles with clear aims, plan ahead for the next three to five years, and ensure each position adds value to patients and teams. It's about leaving roles in a better state than you found them and using opportunities to empower others rather than accumulating titles for their own sake.
Leading the Way 14: Leading through improvement, with Dr Yincent Tse
Q: To introduce things, can you say a bit about how you became a Pediatric Nephrologist and how you got involved in leadership?
I followed a path that emphasized finding my voice and seizing opportunities. My journey through training, mentorship, and engaging in quality improvement projects showed me that leadership is about connecting people and focusing on patient needs, which led me to embrace roles that could drive systemic improvements.
