How can business and management research create more impact on business and society?

3. Balancing Competing Demands (40 minutes)

What are some of the `day to day ‘challenges ADRs are facing in their ongoing quest to be effective research managers? How do you balance competing demands from the different constituents you work with, including faculty, students and university leadership? How do you balance the role of academic with the role as administrator? How do you effectively navigate university structures? What mechanisms have schools put in place to support the work of the ADR? What can the ADR do to make his or her job more efficient?
