#7 Progress Measurement is essential for any type of project one is working on. It is however a very tricky thing once it comes to doctoral studies as this post highlights.

For you to have a better understanding about what to expect at the webinar we are going to post a teaser for each of the ten key points in the days ahead. Today we introduce: #10. The aftermaths of the doctorate: What to expect from a reconfigured version of you (and how to handle yourself). This tenth and last question is frequently overlooked. To many it is likely even entirely unknown. What are the aftermaths of the doctorate? Bear in mind that the doctoral journey is transformational; probably more so than any other journey you undertake. You will think differently, see things differently, will start to naturally work over evidence and logic, will have abilities that most of those around you won’t have, and many other matters that impact professional and private life alike. Have you ever asked yourself, what do you believe you want to do in the future and how can attaining a doctorate help you to achieve your aspirations? It is such type of questions and more that should be nurtured as part of a healthy discussion on how to react to a changing you and what are the possible next steps once the Viva Voce has been passed. That’s it for today and we are looking forward seeing you tomorrow at the webinar. 🔗 Register here to receive the zoom link: https://lnkd.in/egE97hVW #PhDLife #DBA #HigherEducation #AcademicJourney #Webinar #Research #DoctorateHub FOLLOW DoctorateHub for more insights on the doctorate research journey!

For you to have a better understanding about what to expect at the webinar we are going to post a teaser for each of the ten key points in the days ahead. Today we introduce: #4 Supportive Network: The research topic and the role of the supervisor and who else is supporting the development. You have an excellent supervisor who’s well published in organisational culture and intelligence. However, your research increasingly suggests the actual research problem concerns financial resource management. Or in other words, the area of research excellence of your supervisor turned out not to be the area of excellence that your research is going to cover. The question then is, how to resolve this apparent dilemma? Moreover, for many doctoral research projects the understanding of what the research problem actual is, is the final outcome of the research. And if the topic is not clear until the very end, what type of support would you then be needing? It is for exactly those reasons that doctoral programmes need to be prepared to support the student through the entire journey and step by step into developing their research project further and having access to just the right subject expertise, and whatever that expertise might be. That’s it for today and we are looking forward seeing you tomorrow on: #5 Research Methods: Why the research method will lend itself to you, and how related studies are your greatest friend. 🔗 Register Here https://lnkd.in/egE97hVW #PhDLife #DBA #HigherEducation #AcademicJourney #Webinar #Research #DoctorateHub FOLLOW DoctorateHub for more insights on the doctorate research journey!

Learning from others is important. Hence, scientific conferences and other methods of meeting other researchers working in your discipline is an essential element of academia. Continual benchmarking throughout your doctorate is highly recommended. However, knowing where to go and who to meet may be daunting. Therefore, well designed doctoral programmes provide structured means for benchmarking with those at the same development stages, and with those already further ahead.

Very relevant point indeed. Once I took my doctorate I was provided with ample of benchmarking opportunities, which was providing me indeed with guidance and allowed me to understand how the various things relate and belong to each other. Thus you might want to give this topic some well deserved consideration.

A DBA thesis is intended to provide actionable knowledge that can be applied by businesses. However, a DBA is still a research degree, and questions must be framed around problems rather than solutions.

Today we introduce: #3 Mastering the Trio: Understanding and navigating the research-problem / research question / outcome expectation trio. If the outcome expectation of the research is “our organisation must be more innovative”, then students often put forward research questions, such as “how could our organisation be more innovative?” Unfortunately, this question is however not framed in a way that it explores any research problem, but just asks for a solution. And while we do want a solution, it is the problem end over which the scientific research process is working. So how do you then assure, that there is a match in between the desired outcome expectation that is motivating you, and the underlying, and often still unknown, research problem? And how can you derive a question from a problem that is still not known to you? Fortunately, navigating this trio is something that can be learnt and trained. And, therefore, you might want to assure that your programme of choice is getting you covered on that end.

Very likely you never heard about this one. But my doctoral students suffered on that point in the hundreds. It even led to some quite obvious behaviours of self denial. Let me provide you with a typical example: There is a consultant working for one of the big five consultancies who is tasked to advise governments on digital transformation matters. The research objective is thus: to understand how to support governments in their digital transformation plans. And, consequently, the research question to this is: What are good/suitable/the_best/appropriate/put_in_any_filling_word digital transformation plans? So far so good. But now we come to the core: what is the fitting research problem that would justify for such a research question? Can you tell? Or to be more blunt, what is it that is broken (implies: a problem) that would ask for such a research question? And the likely answer is: there is none. Or, at least, there is none if the research question and the research problem are not matched and aligned with the expected outcome expectations.
