Sashe is certain that his 18-year early career in IT was about leadership and not technology. He has spent the last 8 years redefining what that means as a HR consultant and learning leader with Leaderonomics.

Leadership is changing fast these days. It’s not just about big ideas anymore. Organisations need individuals who can manage complex systems—think research, funding, and all the associated regulations. One field stepping into the spotlight is research administration. It’s a mix of strategy, oversight, and leadership that’s super valuable in places like universities, hospitals, and nonprofits. More professionals are jumping into an online Research Administration degree to get ahead. This isn’t just a piece of paper. It’s a way to build skills for managing teams and projects, opening doors to leadership roles that previously felt out of reach. That’s a pretty big deal for anyone looking to make a mark.
