In late 2019 we were invited to give a “How to be Helpful” workshop at the University of Birmingham, organized by Heather Marquette. She is a professor in the School of Government as well as a Senior Research Fellow at UK’s DFID (Department for Int’l Development). At DFID she works on the front lines to figure out the best way to use evidence to improve governance and reduce corruption around the world. Here’s what she reported afterwards about the workshop:

“We were very happy to have Adam come to speak to us. The group was an eclectic mix of experienced research leaders, mid-career researchers looking to take their impact work to the next level and PhD students looking for insights on how they can plan for effective engagement for impact. Adam was incredibly helpful and developed a practical and engaging workshop that spoke to all audiences and sparked great discussions, both during the workshop and afterwards.”
