There will always be constraints when you are managing a scientific project – things that just cannot be compromised on.
Once you’ve identified your risks you can then set about putting things in place to minimise or avoid negative risks, increase chances of an opportunity arising or its impact, and working out which risks should just be accepted.
In science, extension and adoption go hand in hand but are two different things.
Humans have a natural sense of wonder, which is essentially letting yourself ask questions about the world around you.
In science, you have to accept that you will always have critics, and not everyone will agree with your point of view.
For your research to have impact, it needs to create change, which can’t happen if no one knows about the outcomes, or if your research doesn’t align with how the change needs to be made.
Most scientists at one stage or another are involved in the preparation and submission of an article or paper to a scientific journal.
The risk of miscommunications, so, failing to communicate adequately, or misinterpretation, which is communicating in a way that leaves the receiver open to multiple interpretations, can be fairly high.
It can be difficult to identify risks and the impact they might have on your project because you don’t know what you don’t know!
