Mission Statement:

I'm restarting this blog primarily to document some of the useful (and, no doubt, trivial) things I've learned while doing the Project and Dissertation for my MBA. I'll also be resurrecting some old posts from a previous blog that were related to earlier stages of the MBA.

I'm studying by Distance Learning at Warwick Business School and working full time. I also have a young family, and at times it's been very difficult to balance these commitments.
The main reason for this blog is that I've found there's a dearth of online advice about the practicalities of how to go about a research project. There are some good books available on the subject (I'd recommend Real World Research by Colin Robson), but they tend to be fairly generalised. 

I'm going to be very specific about what works for me, in particular some of the technology and workflows I use. That's the first caveat
I also want to cover some more personal aspects, how it's affected my life and career. 

I hope you enjoy reading this, please let me know what you think in the comments.
