  •  A range of key skills which can be transferable across a range of contexts including business engagement, such as influencing, networking, persuading and trust building;

 

  • An understanding of how their own disciplinary knowledge, thinking and methodologies can be applied across a range of business engagement contexts to bring value to both research and practice.
