THE ROLE OF SCIENTIFIC LEADERSHIP IN SHAPING FUTURE INNOVATORS
Abstract
Scientific leadership plays a key role in shaping future innovators by creating a favorable environment for research, creativity and interdisciplinary collaboration. Universities and research institutions are implementing mentoring programs that promote the development of critical thinking, scientific ethics and professional growth of young researchers. The study analyses models of scientific leadership, including transformational and participatory leadership, and their impact on researcher productivity, career success, and the effectiveness of mentoring programs. The results show that institutional support, quality mentoring and leadership skills of researchers contribute to the creation of an innovative environment. The practical value of the study lies in the development of recommendations for the application of forms and methods of strengthening scientific leadership in educational and research institutions. By developing interdisciplinary cooperation and international partnerships, strengthening research infrastructure, and investing in leadership development, Ukrainian universities can effectively compete in the global academic environment.
