As our team has directly conducted or supported numerous research projects, we have observed that research administration is often a neglected segment, particularly by those passionately interested in the subject of research (e.g., academics) or those in a rush to deliver reports. Consequently, there is not only an increased possibility of complications in the field, but also an increase in costs, frustration of the research team, and a lower level of results reliability. Aware that each methodological approach has its own administrative nuances, we’ve identified several recurring issues across contexts. In this Insight Article you can find some practical tips based on the key lessons we’ve learned, designed to help you navigate research administration more effectively from the start.
