FEATURED EVENT
The third edition of The Research Impact Handbook is now available! To mark this milestone, I'm hosting a free workshop with foundational and disruptive figures in the global impact field to reflect on the future of the impact agenda, including Steven Hill, Emanuela Reale, Gemma Derrick and Annette Boaz, chaired by Eric Jensen. Workshop attendees are invited to contribute to an agenda-setting co-authored paper in Research Evaluation. Sign up on Eventbrite to join us on Thursday, 22 January 2026, from 2 to 3 pm (GMT).
You can get 25% off the third edition (until 2 December), so make sure to get your copy today.
FEATURED BLOG POST
I’ve been included in Clarivate’s 2025 Highly Cited Researchers list, which recognises authors with work ranked in the top 1% of citations over the past 11 years. It is encouraging to see long-term research on impact and evidence use gaining attention, yet this also highlights how uneven global metrics can be and how much they reflect structural conditions as much as individual effort. My reflections are outlined in my latest blog post: Advancing rigorous, fair and high-impact research practice.
FEATURED COURSES
Impact depends on reaching the right people. In our live online Inclusive Stakeholder Analysis training workshop, we show you how to identify, prioritise and engage with the stakeholders most critical to your research, based on their interests, influence, and impact. You can book a session here.
FEATURED PODCAST
I recently spoke to Bernard Lecuivre on the Almendra Podcast. The episode focuses on the Ethics of Impact and doing good, with care. The conversation is about political influence under time pressure, about scalable strategies without losing substance, and about the power of intrinsic motivation.
