-Developed new research strategy for ICT. United previously fragmented UCD activity by engaging with internal and external stakeholders to negotiate and establish three priority areas for growth. Used group facilitation and one-to-one consultation to secure buy in from key leaders. -Executed the strategy in partnership with the academic community, by creating an agreed portfolio of initiatives within the three growth areas and managing from concept to funding and implementation. This directly led to new research programmes and recruitment in ‘Data Science’, ‘Smart Systems’, and ‘Internet of Things’ to a combined value of approximately €140m over 5 years.-Successes led to investment in new Research Partners team to replicate this work beyond ICT.
