9. 1 year later... + 1500+ Slack members + #researchops is lively + #whatisresearchops initiative is done + 60 organisers globally + 17 countries / 33 cities @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison List of workshops
10. The aim of the Community is to give shape to and validate research operations AKA ResearchOps. @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
12. Why now? In-house teams are getting bigger. Concepts around research leadership are being formed. More and more, executives and management are looking to researchers for guidance and answers. And holding researchers responsible. Research is being accepted as an essential part of design and delivery. + +

21. What we did @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison Photo credit: Tomomi Sasaki, Tokyo Japan
23. We ran workshops using Liberating Structures 1-2-4-all. And asked 4 questions. @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
24. 1. What research operational challenges have you experienced? 2. What are your operational successes, if any? 3. Where do you see opportunities to improve research operations in your organisation? 4. What do you think ResearchOps includes? @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
25. If you couldn’t get to a workshop, we a ran a survey that was answered by 300+ people. @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
26. What we learned @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison Photo credit: Ruth Ellison, Canberra Australia
27. @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison Photo credit: Tomomi Sasaki, Tokyo Japan The challenges Resource constraints Recruitment Communicating value Scaling research Managing knowledge and sharing insights Maturity
28. Why do we need ResearchOps? @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
29. What we learned What it is @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
30. ResearchOps is the mechanisms and strategies that set user research in motion. It provides the roles, tools and processes needed to support researchers in delivering and scaling the impact of the craft across an organisation. @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison

32. Recruitment @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
33. Tools @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
34. Budget @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
35. Governance @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
36. Guidelines & templates @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
37. Research spaces @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
38. Knowledge management, Asset management & internal communications @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
39. Capability & opportunity, Team building & care, Event management “We needed to invest in people who can keep the wheels spinning and who are highly adaptable. That isn’t always a requirement for research roles, but it’s becoming more important.” - Seattle, USA @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
40. What we learned What it is What it is not @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
41. It’s not the craft. It’s helping researchers focus on the craft by providing mechanisms to help researchers do their research. It’s not only about insights and data. It’s also about people. It’s not research methodology or strategy. It supports the implementation of those things. It’s not research leadership. It supports research leadership. @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
42. The Oz flavour @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
43. Where did we go on our Australian odyssey? Canberra Sydney Melbourne Hobart @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
44. What makes Australia a special place to do ResearchOps? @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
45. Australia: not much about strategy, not much about the tools @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
46. Australia: All about governance, frameworks, knowledge management and community @teamreops / @katetowsey @BrigetteMetzler @RuthEllison
47. Hobart Stakeholder management is important. Ops are seen as the conduit between research and business. More research with tight cadence means a need for guidelines & templates. Researchers need a way to measure their impact. Ops needs to find a way to make research extensible with common data models and a shared vocabulary. + +
48. Melbourne Global framework. Ops has a role in helping us see where we fit in the global picture. How are we doing?** Communities of practice: can Ops help foster a research community? Can we just get a research repository that works already?* + + ResearchOps is tools, templates, guides, methods and maps.
49. Canberra ResearchOps are a bridge. Between stakeholders, helping get buy-in, organising secondments, organising participants . “ Research ops includes research methods, building research capability, getting support for research, research methods and techniques, gaining a better understanding of your users (their triggers and motivations).” ResearchOps is tools – physical and digital. + +
50. Sydney ResearchOps is communicating. ResearchOps is applying data science and structure to research. ResearchOps is team. ResearchOps has a leadership function. + +
