Excellent article, thank you for highlighting. This part in particular really resonated "
A collaborative culture may not occur if people do not feel empowered, and empowerment does not occur unless people trust that they are valued, appreciated through adequate performance appraisals, feel safe to give their opinions, and are able to be the unique individuals they are."
I really like the focus on enabling our colleagues to feel they can be themselves - to my mind this is a great way to foster creativity, and for the individual it will hopefully mean they do not need to spend energy on being something they are not in order to "Fit in".

Subject: RF feature: The leadership role in regulatory affairs
Hey guys, I wanted to spotlight a Regulatory Focus feature that received a ton of publicity on social media: The leadership role in regulatory affairs, by Rushabh Patel, Siddhi Rasam, @Darin Oppenheimer and @George Cusatis.
Here's the brief outline:
The global regulatory affairs (RA) profession is facing a shift in the definition of leadership success. This article aims to shed some light on important aspects of regulatory leadership. In the context of the article, leadership is defined by the power of making a difference. It explains why critical thinking, business acumen, emotional intelligence, team building, influence and mentorship plays a vital role in building leaders and why RA professionals today should use these tools to evolve into successful leaders.
All RAPS members can read the full feature here.
