• Supervisors should have training. People with few "people skills" should not be put into supervisory roles, if ‘x’ was in a good mood, we had a good day
• The chance of a permanent position and a leadership were very attractive after 15 yrs on different research grant contracts
• I had a fantastic time working with my team at UWA. I would have stayed, but my relocation has made it impossible.
