3: Gillian Shasby, Journal of Neurosurgery Publishing Group

Gillian Shasby didn't make a dramatic career move to reach the top—she rose steadily through the Journal of Neurosurgery Publishing Group, building systems and efficiencies along the way. Her methodical, process-driven approach has allowed JNS to defy publishing industry gravity: keeping costs flat for a decade while launching new journals and tripling submission volumes.  In this conversation, Gillian discusses the consecutive peer review model that sets JNS apart, why independent journal publishing resists outsourcing, and why AI's impact on research integrity keeps her awake at night. She also reveals how a fully remote team of self-described introverts built genuine culture through song playlists, shared channels, and the occasional in-person gathering.
