BACKGROUND

Success in research is vital for the reputation of the present day Business School. While each European country is developing its own ways of judging research success, there are many common elements. Furthermore, research directors face many of the same problems – funding, motivating staff, dealing with other stakeholders both in and outside the school, and many more. This workshop complements the course for Research Directors run by Euram and that run in the UK by BAM. It brings a variety of keynote speakers from across Europe, and opportunities to share experience through presentations in themed sessions, discussions and networking.

 


 CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
