Abstract

Institutions of Higher Education are complex matrixed organizations that require collaboration across silos. Research Administration, Institutional Research, Enterprise IT, and Research Computing are important areas to leverage when building a research analytics program. Across these units, our work can look very different, and we likely have different mental models for how we think about and approach work. This can make cross-functional communication and collaboration difficult. This presentation will provide a mental model for working in higher education research analytics, discuss critical players, and how to get work moving forward. Finally, we will provide a list of key ingredients to consider when building your institution’s research analytics program and strategies for effective buy-in and collaboration.
