The next outcome focuses on developing supporting themes by analyzing ten previously successful research strategies. This will involve scrutinizing each strategy for common themes, developing a universal supporting theme from this analysis, and identifying ten successful research strategies from various sources.
The last outcome aims to pinpoint and confirm the lead theme with the input of five industry experts. This process will involve confirming the main theme through collective expert consensus. Five experts will be interviewed, and the recurring theme in their responses will be identified and analysed.
This OKR puts much emphasis on meticulous analysis, strategic planning, and expert consultation to ensure that the research and development strategy encompasses pertinent themes that are geared towards the company's success and growth.
