What then??

  • Once proposal is deemed finished, research process re-starts
  • proposal is still a good discussion document (potential interviewees etc...)
  • document may be used as a starting point to write the literature review
  • slot more and more information and references in the original proposal.

Conclusion

  • Finished product will seem radically different from what was in the proposal
  • not a problem
  • not a weakness
  • just a reflection of the tortuous nature of research work
  • also convenience for researcher (e.g. data available)

How do we go about it?

  • 20 minutes to read the papers individually
  • 15 minutes to talk about them in groups and prepare a presentation
  • 6 times 10 minutes to present the papers
  • a well-deserved 10 minute break in the middle
  • A quick discussion on potential topics that emerge from the articles presented

Then...

  • Students select a potential topic
  • students write a 1000 words proposal using all the papers on the model described last week
  • proposal include research questions that will be pursued
  • proposals go in the research folder
  • Freddy reads them
  • students describe their individual proposals (next week)
  • open discussion on the proposals that students put forward (next week)

The papers are:

Information as signal and symbol (Feldman and March, 1981) Making Executive Information Systems more effective (McLeod and Jones, 1986) What effective general managers really do (Kotter, 1999) Information Media and Source patterns across managerial levels (Jones, Saunders and McLeod, 1988) The Manager’s job folklore and fact (Mintzberg, 1975) Executive’s perception of their information sources (McLeod, Jones and Poitevent, 1984)

Feed Back on Proposals

  • No more hand-written stuff
  • Also work on general presentation from now on
  • Also work on style:
    • no I, we etc…
    • punctuation
    • referencing
    • don’t overemphasise
  • Respect authors and their work
  • Support in required for all statements (cf lit review)

We expect evolution throughout the year

Research reports in diaries

  • Folder MUST be done on on-going basis - three at a time reports are useless for students
  • students must learn the process so they can do it again efficiently in May / June
  • Zero tolerance on deadlines - too much trouble
  • Reports are sometimes too close to the lectures
  • should reveal a more personal experience - what it all means - show message was received
  • reports might be the forum for evolution of topic

Finding and studying existing

research

  • Next step after writing the proposal
  • proposal does not solve problems…it asks questions
  • existing research must be sought to guide researcher
  • benefit of knowing what has come before
  • contents / findings / methods used / problems encountered / solutions found
