The unique responsibilities of Research Administration and Research Development (RARD) administrators, as professionals who support collaboration across diverse research disciplines, support faculty at all stages of their academic careers, and who engage with external partners and sponsors, make RARDs a critical human resource investment in growing the research enterprise. This project will train RARD professionals to use a strengths-based approach, called SOAR (Strengths, Opportunities, Aspirations, and Results) in strategic thinking, planning, leading, and facilitating conversations that spark innovation, collaboration, and support research engagement within and across emerging research institutions to provide mentoring, shared expertise and resources required for growth. Lawrence Technological University in partnership with University of South Florida and Michigan Independent Colleges and Universities network will host the Building Research Infrastructure, Networks, and Knowledge (BRINK) conferences to provide training over a year-long period via in-person and virtual workshops and will host a symposium to showcase the results of participant’s implemented capacity-building projects within and across emerging research institutions. BRINK addresses emerging research institutional barriers by increasing capacity through a synergistic approach that optimizes training, collective mentoring, and symposia. The basis of BRINK’s RARD training is the SOAR framework and method of Appreciative Inquiry (AI), a practice of asking generative questioning and use of positive framing, to involve all stakeholders in strategic planning and organizational change. Initial workshops will be training in SOAR, individual assessment of strengths (the SOAR Profile), and setting objectives for individual projects. The project will engage Research Administration and Research Development (RARD) administrators from Michigan’s emerging research institutions who will learn how to use SOAR to think and plan strategically about the practices and processes within their respective research enterprise. Three iterations of follow-on 90-day mentoring sessions will share interim successes on projects and strategies supporting implementation. The final symposium will provide an opportunity to share successfully practiced strategies that specifically contribute to the research community’s capacity to support all emerging research institutions. The BRINK project activities will promote the development of a sustainable network of emerging research institutions in Michigan. The Florida Research Development Alliance is a partner and model for building this sustainable structure. The methods and results of the BRINK program will be widely disseminated with the goal of promoting networked approaches to building research development and support capacity within emerging research institutions.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

研究管理和研究发展（RARD）管理人员的独特责任，作为支持跨潜水员研究学科合作的专业人员，在其学术职业的各个阶段支持教师，并与外部合作伙伴和赞助商互动，使RARDS成为增长研究企业的关键人力资源。该项目将在战略思维，计划，领导和支持对话中使用基于优势的方法来培训RARD专业人员，称为SOAR（优势，机会，愿望和结果），这些对话激发了创新，协作和支持在新兴研究机构内部和整个新兴研究机构的研究参与，以提供成长所需的心理，共享的专业知识。劳伦斯技术大学与南佛罗里达大学和密歇根大学独立学院和大学网络合作，将主持建筑研究基础设施，网络和知识（Brink）会议，通过面对面和虚拟的研讨会在一年的时间内提供一年的培训，并将举办一项Imposium，以展示参与能力构建能力构建和跨越跨越能力研究的跨性别项目的跨性别研究。 Brink通过通过协同方法来优化培训，集体心理和专题讨论会来提高能力来解决新兴的研究机构障碍。 Brink的Rard培训的基础是欣赏询问（AI）的飙升框架和方法，一种提出仿制药和使用积极框架的做法，使所有利益相关者参与战略计划和组织变革。最初的研讨会将是培训，对实力的个人评估（Soar概况）以及为个别项目设定对象。该项目将与密歇根州新兴研究机构的研究管理与研究开发（RARD）管理员联系，他们将学习如何利用Soar来思考和计划其各自研究企业中的实践和过程。后续90天心理课程的三个迭代将在支持实施的项目和策略上分享临时成功。最后的研讨会将提供一个机会，可以分享成功实践策略，这些策略特别有助于研究社区支持所有新兴研究机构的能力。边缘项目活动将促进密歇根州新兴研究机构的可持续发展网络的发展。佛罗里达研究发展联盟是建立这种可持续结构的合作伙伴和模型。 Brink计划的方法和结果将被广泛传播，目的是促进网络方法来建立新兴研究机构内的研究开发和支持能力。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的智力优点和更广泛的影响审查标准通过评估来评估的。
