Research in Action is a weekly podcast about topics and issues related to research in higher education from experts across a range of disciplines.
On this episode, I talk about strategies for successfully drafting and implementing a five-year plan for your research and writing. As always, I would love to hear from listeners about whether you create multi-year research plans and how you implement them. Please also share any other helpful tips you have for planning your research pipeline.
