Going off-piste: could a little less structure in your research take you further?

In this podcast, I consider whether my own formal research training of nearly 30 years ago, and whether its robust structure may have held me back in the way I approached the value and application of my findings.

As the years have rolled by, I have seen research techniques become increasingly more fluid, mixed-method, and open-ended. I firmly believe this is doing more good than harm, and conclude by encouraging researchers and those who commission them to be brave, and venture off the beaten track. Be brave!
