R&D Management Study Group

Summary

EIRMA offers an interactive learning experience for R&D managers who are facing their second or third career promotion and its associated discontinuities in job content. The event is different to traditional ‘training’ in R&D Management, as the EIRMA Management Study Group is based on learning through an exchange of participants’ practical experience , facilitated by senior faculty who will provide frameworks in which this learning can be structured.

The Management Study Group concentrates in a pragmatic way on problems and tasks faced within a modern R&D environment.
Three main topics are covered:
• The organisation of R&D work inside and outside the company and its role in the enterprise
• Managing the human resource
• Achieving an innovative and entrepreneurial R&D climate

Target Audience

EIRMA Management Study Groups address professional who have recently faced or are about to face significant, new responsibilities.
While the first promotion of a scientist or engineer in an R&D organisation brings the individual to the position of leading a small team, they are still generally involved in technical work, but now across a broader front.

The EIRMA Management Study Group aims at immersing participants in a learning experience designed to change their behaviours and improve performance in their new role.
