description <p>In the last decade a growing number of PIs (Principal Investigators) in the Social Sciences Division have secured substantial awards which require teams of varying size to be recruited and managed, also evidenced by our growing population of fixed-term researchers (FTRs).</p> <p>There are multiple initiatives across the University and sector more widely to advance research culture change. Oxford has three interconnected priorities: conducting research to the highest standards of rigour, recognising the different skills and roles that contribute to research, and supporting the career aspirations of our colleagues.</p> <p>Other relevant initiatives include the Concordat to support the career development of researchers, Athena Swan, and the Race Equality Charter.</p> <p>This report outlines the methodology and key findings of a qualitative research project, conducted by Professor Katrina Charles, Dr Sam Sneddon and Dr Katherine Collins. The research was supported by the Research Culture Enhancement Fund, to investigate the experiences of both PIs and FTRs of leadership, management, and culture in research teams. It concludes with some suggestions, in the context of wider Divisional and University initiatives on research culture. The research team would like to thank the project steering group of Dr William Allen and Professor Christiaan Monden, and the advisory board (see Appendix 2) for their input and support.</p>
