The research proposal

Lyn Daff

Accounting, Auditing & Accountability Journal, 2011, vol. 24, issue 4, 553-553

Abstract: Purpose - The purpose is to reflect on writing a PhD proposal. Design/methodology/approach - The paper is a poem based on the author's experience. Findings - This is meditation on how the topic, theory and method for a research project all need to be fine‐tuned, so they are in balance. Research limitations/implications - The paper stimulates thought about what drives a research project, and that various adaptations are required, so the topic theory, and method are woven together in harmony. Originality/value - The paper provides an insight into the preparation of a research proposal, and highlights that it is not a linear process, driven only by the topic.
