Amal Aljuhani, Clinical Fellow at University of Toronto, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“A quick note to new trainees: choose your supervisor wisely.
The right supervisor doesn’t just guide your work, they actively elevate you. They should be Secure enough to celebrate your wins, advocate for you in rooms you’re not in, and push you toward opportunities you didn’t think you were ready for. If you feel like you’re competing with your supervisor, that’s a red flag. Mentorship is not a competition.
Strong mentors build people, not just CVs. They create space for you to grow, take credit where it’s due, and stand behind you when it matters. I’ve been fortunate to experience this firsthand; grateful to have found a mentor in David Cescon who consistently leads this way.
Your environment will shape your trajectory more than you think: choose one that pulls you forward.”
