Although academia and industry have a slightly different focus, the collaborative projects between both are mutually beneficial and can rapidly speed up the innovation and implementation of discoveries in the market. ''While companies usually focus on generating higher revenues, cutting costs, refining product offerings, and improving customer service, they frequently turn to universities when they are seeking new ideas, technologies, and ways of doing business.'' Just keep in mind that a thorough project plan and agreements are essential ahead of any planned collaboration. In addition, setting realistic expectations and measurable goals will increase the probability of the successful completion of your project. As stated in the article below: “What gets measured gets done.”😉 #academia #industry #partnerships #collaboration #science #lifesciences

Are you struggling with motivation? Consider reading this post. The author offers practical, actionable advice on how to build momentum through small, consistent steps. His insights are incredibly valuable for anyone pursuing a challenging project.
Self-motivation and coming to work wanting to do more, even in the face of adversity, is a skill I bring to work quite often. Recently, I've been reflecting on where I learned to do this, and I believe it was during my PhD years. Like many PhD students, I spent years with seemingly little to show for it. Few publications. No real breakthroughs. Just endless experiments, failed attempts, and the occasional glimmer of progress. It wasn't until my fourth year that I finally published the core idea for my PhD thesis. Looking back, I realize something profound about motivation: We often think we need to feel motivated to make progress, but the reality is exactly opposite. As it turns out, motivation isn't what drives achievement – achievement, even tiny wins, drives motivation. During those challenging early years of my PhD, I learned that waiting for motivation was a trap. The key was creating small, achievable goals each day: running one more experiment, debugging one more idea, writing one more section. Each small completion created a tiny spark of accomplishment that fueled the next step. Here's what I wish I'd known from the start: Don't wait for motivation to strike. Start with small, concrete actions. Celebrate the minor wins. Let each step forward, no matter how tiny, fuel your momentum. This same principle now drives my approach to building new ideas for users. I don't look for big ideas (those are way harder to find!). Instead, I look for small ideas, find ways to validate and prove they have merit, then push for more validation, more results, and eventually, perhaps breakthrough. Achievements breed motivation. Success in long-term endeavors – whether a PhD, building a new product, or mastering a new skill – isn't about maintaining constant motivation. It's about building a cycle of small achievements that gradually compound into significant progress! Think about how you can take the small steps to compound into material changes. For more on this philosophy of incremental progress and how it's really an effective way to execute and have significant impact, check out the roofshot manifesto by Luiz André Barroso (RIP): https://lnkd.in/g3Nh7GEf What small wins are you celebrating today?

How to Lead a Collaborative Research Project Successfully in 2024! Leadership in collaborative research is often overshadowed by logistics—who’s doing what or which tools to use. But leading a research project is much more than coordination. It requires strategic thinking, soft skills, and adaptability to ensure the project's success. So how do you lead brilliant, independent-minded academics without chaos or stagnation? Here are some key strategies for successful leadership in collaborative research: ⏩Establish a Clear Vision A clear vision aligns your team, but you must also allow flexibility. Research evolves, and so should your project direction. As a leader, don’t micromanage—set clear goals but be open to new paths as insights emerge. Example: In a cross-disciplinary project with data scientists, economists, and sociologists, keep the overall objective clear but let each group’s input influence the process. ⏩Foster Open Communication In academia, hierarchies are common, but they can stifle innovation. As a leader, create an environment where everyone—regardless of experience—feels valued. Rotate meeting leaders or use anonymous idea-sharing platforms to ensure all voices are heard. Example: A PhD candidate leading a discussion can offer fresh perspectives and make quieter members feel more comfortable sharing. ⏩Leverage Expertise Leverage your team’s diverse expertise but know when to step back. You don’t need to be an expert in every area. Trust your team to take ownership, especially in areas outside your expertise. Example: Let the qualitative expert design ethnographic surveys while the statistician sets parameters for data analysis. Step back and let the experts lead in their areas. ⏩Manage Conflict Proactively Conflict is inevitable in collaborative research. Address tensions early, before they escalate. Regular feedback sessions allow team members to voice concerns and resolve issues before they become major problems. Example: If one researcher feels overshadowed, encourage a one-on-one discussion to clarify expectations and resolve tension. ⏩Be Strategic with Milestones Break the project into short-term milestones to keep momentum. Celebrate small wins like completing a data analysis phase or drafting a section of the paper. Example: If your project involves multiple phases, celebrate each one to keep morale high and reassess the project’s direction if needed. In conclusion, leading a research project is about balancing structure with flexibility and leadership with delegation. It’s about creating an environment where everyone thrives. 💡 Question: Are you ready to lead your team through the challenges of collaborative research and turn them into opportunities for innovation? 📌PS: Stay tuned for my next post, "The Role of Technology in Enhancing Research Collaboration." 📌PPS: Need help with your research?

The ASFI 2025 Science Seminar Series is kick-starting in a week’s time. The theme for this year is FROM COLLABORATION TO IMPACT. The overarching goal for this year is to build practical experiences in multidisciplinary collaborative research over the course of 12 months. Seminar structure: We will have brief talks (on topics related to collaboration) at the beginning of each seminar session, then we will breakout in groups, what we call “Collaborative Research Groups (CRGs)”. The CRGs will have 45-60 minutes in their respective breakout sessions to brainstorm, initiate, and implement any collaborative project. Members of each CRG will continue together in their group from the first seminar in January until December. The goal is to come together, form an active collaboration, nurture the collaboration, implement a project with the established collaboration group and report on the experiences and outputs of the collaboration at the December. The CRGs will be created during the first seminar, scheduled for 2nd February 2025. Please see details below. We invite you to join us and spread the news to you colleagues and networks to join the movement. In this first edition, we will introduce the series, with focus on the following issues: Introduction to Research Collaboration First things first Form the Collaborative Research Groups (CRGs) How to build a collaborative group Join us for an exhilarating year of collaboration, a collaboration that leads impact.

Innovation and Emerging technology Lead @ KPMG — Futurologist — M. Sc Foresight, Innovation & Disruption – Doctorate Student, Innovation Management
EMBRACING MULTIPLE PASSIONS TO DRIVE INNOVATION 🛠️ One thing I’ve come to realize in my career journey is that being multipassionate is not just an advantage—it’s almost a requirement for innovation experts. From my early fascination Wood carving and Jazz 🎙️ to History and Electronics⚡, diving into Aerospace and Software Development 💻, Economics and R&D management 🧪, Geopolitics and Philosophy, each passion has added a new tool to my innovation toolbox. 🔍 Every discipline I’ve explored offered a different way to approach problems. Wood Carving taught me precision and the emotional relationship with objects, computer science gave me a logical structure, R&D pushed me to embrace uncertainty, I see how all these passions merged to create my innovation management minsdset. 🚀 The takeaway? Innovation experts are often multipassionate because our field requires us to pull from various industries, skills, and experiences. We thrive on the intersection of different ideas and approaches to build solutions that are adaptable, practical, and future-focused. 💡 To all the multipassionate thinkers out there: How has your mix of interests helped you drive innovation? #InnovationManagement #Multipassionate #Innovation #TechAndCreativity #RDMangement #Interdisciplinary #ProblemSolving
